And does it really matter how you arrange the lines and spaces? Aren’t the words the most important part?\nThe truth is the arrangement of a poem is a powerful and underrated element of poetic craft. Join prize-winning poet Mathew Weitman in a workshop that will categorically prove just how important it is to think about how your poem looks on the page. Using mentor texts and craft essays from such greats as Albert Ríos\, Charles Simic\, Lyn Hejinian\, Charles Bernstein\, Harryette Mullen\, Charles Olson\, Denise Levertov\, and many others\, we will turn our attention to the question of how to form poems on the page.\nStudents can expect to workshop at least one poem.\nThis event is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance. This project is generously funded by the Houston Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs\, and Mid-America Arts Alliance.\n​This project is generously funded by Mid-America Arts Alliance\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the state arts agencies of Arkansas\, Kansas\, Missouri\, Nebraska\, Oklahoma\, and Texas.

SUMMARY:Writing the Humorous Essay
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Doni Wilson\nTIME: Saturday\, August 24\, 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. CDT\nPRICE: Early bird price: $45 for members\, $60 for nonmembers. The deadline for early bird pricing is Sunday\, August 18. After Sunday\, August 18: $55 for members\, $70 for nonmembers. Become a member here. Apply for a scholarship here.\nLOCATION: Writespace\, 1907 Sabine Street\, #125\, Houston\, TX 77007 (map)\nLEVEL: All levels\nCAP: 15\nDo people ever tell you how funny or witty you are? The challenge is getting it down on paper!\nAn essay is the perfect form to convey narratives that show how funny real life can be\, as well as the unexpected humor that pops up whenever humans are involved.\nUsing mentor texts\, we will explore the role of humor in the personal essay and apply those lessons to our own essay drafts. We will look at outlets that publish humorous essays and consider the ways such writing can be transferred to multiple genres.\nThis event is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance. This project is generously funded by the Houston Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs\, and Mid-America Arts Alliance.\n​This project is generously funded by Mid-America Arts Alliance\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the state arts agencies of Arkansas\, Kansas\, Missouri\, Nebraska\, Oklahoma\, and Texas.
