Course Description: This is our longest running course. It is suitable for those with some experience of either creative writing or haiku already, as it is quite advanced and the feedback quite technical, but it's still welcoming and inclusive. Participants submit two haiku poems four times over the course (total 8 poems over two and a half months) and may also add three rewritten poems for final comments during that time. Each session's prompts are accessed online. Feedback is sent by email, with participants reading Alan's commentary on each others' poems as well as their own in a group learning process.
Cost: £190 (approximately US$240)
Early Bird Rate: £180 (approximately US$227) if booked by end of 4th April 2024
That also meant reading so many poems by the other participants, also enjoyable and helpful.

As always, when I complete a course with COTP I feel so much richer. It makes me work with more depth and attention to details -
structuring and deconstructing. And the feedback for us all is so valuable. I love the encouragement to go for it and still watching the form.
I savoured the reading of everyone's wonderful work and Alan's feedback. Alan your capacity to create gorgeous poems out of the prose explode is infuriating!...

ways to enhance the writing of my memoir.

As always, a great course I take regularly that's my key framework for writing haiku, and without which I would be less active and engaged. Thank you Call of the Page team for facilitating my growing skills and learning as a writer. And it's wonderful to read everyone elses poems and creative process, makes a real difference.
Thanks
