Description:

To improve your writing skills and widen your perspective.

Leader:

Lou
Scribbler (Co-Leader)

Moderator(s):

Raj

Objectives:

To improve your writing skills. To re- write and post a poem that is in someone else’s style and therefore develop fresh ideas and a new perspective on your writing and its style. The idea is not to use someones re-write at the end of the workshop and call it your own.

Subject matter:

Each participant will offer at least one poem that they wish to improve, (this may
vary in accordance with the number of participants).

A list of submitted poems will then be made, participants should keep a copy (Leader, co- leader and moderators will keep a copy of the list).

Stan and I will ask the first person on the list post their problem poem. The Author of the problem poem will post it On Stream, Participants will then be able to discuss it whilst On Stream, Paricipants will then re-write or partly re-write the poem and post On Stream. When commenting or posting please indicate that it is for the Splash Pool Work Shop, and click the relivent tab.

The poem will then be reviewed. After brief discussion , we will move on to the next poem, and so on until each poem has been covered.

When each poem has been worked on, the original author will take what they have discovered, and write a final version of their poem and post it On stream.
