CRW 5331 - Spring 2026 - Suárez

This course will focus (intensely so) on the writing and critique/reading of YOUR poetry. We will have readings, presentations, and discussions of poetic forms and issues relating to the writing of contemporary poetry as it relates to your developing work and the techniques that will matter most to your poems.

You will write and bring to workshop one poem per week. We are aiming for everyone to have a small chapbook by the end of the semester.

Requirements: For MFA students, this course satisfies 3 of the required 12-15 hours of writing workshops. For PhD students, it counts toward the 27 hours of required coursework.
