Putting constraints on writing can feel like a challenge, but sometimes pressure is what’s needed to unearth new ideas and inspiration. We’ll write through extreme constraints inspired by everything from music to math, from dictionaries to daily walks, and invent our own constraints to help us when we’re feeling stuck.
Jennifer (JP) Perrine is the author of five award-winning books of poetry, including their latest collection, Beautiful Outlaw. Their other recent writing appears in Best Small Fictions, A Mouth Holds Many Things: A De-Canon Hybrid Lit Collection, and Cascadia Field Guide: Art, Ecology, and Poetry. Perrine lives in Portland, Oregon.
Limited to 20 participants.
