Are you an established poet yearning for inspiration or a novice poet looking for growth? Poetry is Life will reacquaint you with contemporary masters, introduce you to up-and-coming poets, and provide you with an interactive and structured approach to apply to your own practice of writing poetry.
Poetry is Life is a collection of prompts and poems by Ann Quinn and eight poets from Ann's monthly workshop sponsored by Yellow Arrow Publishing. This collection was created for both the writer and reader of poetry. In 12 chapters corresponding to 12 monthly sessions, you can experience parts of the workshop yourself or just enjoy our words. Read poems easily found on the Internet by beloved poets from William Blake to Terrence Hayes, and from Elizabeth Bishop to Tracy K. Smith. Then, study the prompts-drawn from close analysis of the well-known poets-included in each chapter, so that you can create your own poems. As you read the resulting work from our Poetry is Life group, you will see how each voice, including yours, has a unique offering.
Award-winning poet Ann Quinn has led a monthly workshop for Yellow Arrow since early 2020. Poets who take this course range from beginners to those with published books of poetry. We come from Baltimore, San Diego, Charlotte, and Detroit. We have forged a friendship through our poetry and are excited to share our work with you.
Contributions by Linda Gail Francis, Patrick W. Gibson, Jessica Gregg, Sara Palmer, Julia W. Prentice, Patti Ross, Nikita Rimal Sharma, and Jobie Townshend-Zellner
