SUMMARY:Telling the Hard Stuff: A Confessional Poetry Workshop with Ellen Lord
DESCRIPTION:Telling the Hard Stuff: A Confessional Poetry Workshop with Ellen Lord\n\nSaturday\, January 17\, 2026\n1:00 -3:00 PM \n\nConfessional poetry asks us to speak the truths we often keep hidden. In this two‑hour workshop\, we’ll explore how vulnerability becomes art\, how the “hard stuff” transforms into language that resonates\, and how craft supports courage. Together\, we’ll create a safe\, supportive space to write the poems that demand to be written. This class includes an autographed copy of Ellen Lord’s latest book VIGIL.\n\n\nWhether you write poems on the page or songs for the stage\, this workshop welcomes artists who turn lived experience into works of written art. Poets and songwriters alike will find tools for shaping raw emotion into work that connects and endures.\n\nClass Fee: $40.00. Includes a signed copy of Ellen Lord’s latest book VIGIL.\n\nTo Register: Call 906-484-1333 or CLICK HERE to register online.\n\n\nABOUT THE PRESENTER: \nEllen Lord began writing as a kid\, first stirred to poetry by Edgar Allen Poe’s raven and various morbid nursery rhymes. She is inspired by forays in nature\, along with feasts and foibles of the human condition. She was raised in the wilds of the Upper Peninsula and often returns to her ancestral home. She is a behavioral health therapist\, specializing in addiction and trauma. \n\nScholarship discounts are available. Call 906-484-1333 for details if finances are an impeding you from attending this workshop. A limited number of discount tickets are available for teens and low income participants.
