Join poet and editor Joanna Preston for a workshop designed to help you get your poem ready for the wider world.

We’ll look at the basics of editing, some tricks and tips to make it easier, and some of the common mistakes writers make. We’ll also look at how you go about the mechanics of sending your poem out to literary journals – the do’s and don’t’s of submission, what to expect, and even suggestions for managing the admin.

Intended for people with some experience of writing poetry, although no previous publication experience is required.
