| Description |
 Instructor Tatyana Mishel will show writers how to make the world their collaborator, and not get so locked into the notion of over-delving internally and staring at their notebook or computer during the writing process. We will also answer the question of: how does a poet manifest collaboration without being dependent on another person, or a group, to participate?
Max number participants: 15
Tatyana Mishel's teaching philosophy emphasizes Surprise, Risk and keeping the creative muscle in shape. Class time is a laboratory of exploration, discussion and writing. Writers are given a variety of strategies and back-pocket tricks and tools they can take into their lives. One of the goals is to show how possible it is to sit down anytime and write something. Her poems and interviews have recently been published in CALYX, Swivel, KNOCK, Cranky Literary Journal, In Posse Review, Seattle P.I., Zinkville, with more forthcoming. Tatyana received her MFA from Antioch University in Fiction and Poetry. A former editor of ELLE magazine, today one of her jobs is as a technical writer for an internet company.
