Outlets and another course!
I have also started a short course with The Poetry School on writing a Villanelle. It is an online course and tutorials and 'chat' take place on a Monday evening every other week. Our first 'chat' is Monday 24th October but already we have had our first assignment and have uploaded our first Villanelle. This form of poetry I have described in a previous post. It is a challenge I relish (it can be very time consuming!). I have to say there are some good ones from my fellow students and this course is open to all levels of poets and I certainly feel that there are quite a few who are more advanced than me!
I am extremely nervous about the live chat as I am not great at it. I still can't gel with Facebook and Messenger is also alien to me. I have already had to enlist the help of my IT savvy son to sort out Java for me (which I need for 'chat'). I've told him he'll be on stand by for Monday evening!
