Join me for a magical journey into the world of poetry and fairy stories about witches and wise women. In this enchanting class, we will explore some evocative spell-poems by Anne Sexton and a captivating story by a powerful sorceress by Tanith Lee. Together, we will break down the meaning and techniques of these works, and you’ll learn how to craft your own poem or story inspired by these spellbinding stories. This workshop is designed to boost your confidence in describing the elements that define you as witch/enchanter/spellcaster/mystic/practitioners of magic, however you define yourself, and is inclusive to all genders. You will leave class with a first draft of a poem and/or a plot for a short tale that you can then continue to write on your own. The class comes with a bonus, which is a one-hour zoom call with me (or you can choose e-mail) to send me your work when it is finished so I can read it and tell you how fabulous your skills are and identify your biggest strengths as a writer. Whether you are a seasoned writer or a complete beginner, this fun seasonal class will provide you with valuable skills and a unique perspective on your strengths as a magical being through telling your own spellbinding story.

Students who register should reach out to me at susanredingtonbobby@professorofwords.com and let me know so I can send you links to the reading material if you’d like to read ahead of class!
