defending the em dash: on poetry and punctuation

A free, two-hour workshop exploring the function of punctuation in poetry. 

Punctuation creates and disrupts rhythm, it can quicken or slow pace, it can alter the entire meaning of our words.

As part of the workshop, we'll read some poems, share ideas, and complete some writing exercises. They'll be a chance to share your work but never any pressure to do so! Writers of all levels of experience welcome.

Please bring a notebook and pen/pencil or laptop, whatever you're comfortable writing with (we'll have spare pens on hand).

The space is fully wheelchair accessible with gender neutral toilets. Full accessibility information can be found online here: feministlibrary.co.uk/accessibility/
