Poetry Studio: Prompts for Poets

The purpose of this book is to welcome you to your own poetry studio. Like an art studio, recording studio, dance studio, yoga studio, or basketball court, Poetry Studio invites you into a creative space where you can make a new poem even when you might not feel creative. Whether you're in an MFA program or a college class, writing your first poem or are a published poet, these prompts are meditations and invitations for you to write.
