poetry workshop

Stanza critique session

A poetry workshop is a gathering where writers share their poems and receive feedback from peers or an instructor.

Participants typically read work aloud and offer constructive criticism on craft elements like imagery, rhythm, and word choice.

The format is common in creative writing programs and community arts centers: I workshopped that poem for months before it felt finished.
