September 11, 2021 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am

$215 – $242
Online, N/A, Portland, OR 97207

Your sentences have music that can evoke emotion in ways that support and inform your story or essay. Meter, rhythm, word length, sentence length, consonants and vowels, juxtaposition –  they’re not just for poets!  Grammar has its own music as well. In this class we’ll explore the emotional possibilities of sound & meaning using published texts as well as the work of participants, who will be asked to submit 2 pages per week.. Come prepared to be surprised at what your writing can do. | Maximum: 10 writers
