Event
From Image to Poem
However we might characterize our childhood, we all can claim one. Whether pleasant, scary, sad, or happy images of childhood come to mind, poetry is well suited to convey these memories. In addition to sharing her own and other poets' poems about childhood, Higgins Leach will lead a meditation exercise that moves each participant from images and details to a first full draft of a poem.
Yvonne Higgins Leach is the author of Another Autumn (WordTech Editions, 2014). Her poems have appeared in South Dakota Review, South Carolina Review, Spoon River Poetry Review, Cimarron Review, and Wisconsin Review, among others. She earned a Master of Fine Arts from Eastern Washington University in 1986. She has spent decades balancing a career in communications and public relations, raising a family, and pursuing her love of writing poetry. She splits her time living in Snohomish and Spokane, Washington. For more information, visit www.yvonnehigginsleach.com.
