Tarot Poems Writer's Group

Each week we’ll explore a different aspect of the Tarot (history, suits, major arcana, ritual, layouts, relationships, and more), and read 1-2 source texts by authors who explore these themes. The readings will be paired with a brief experiment to guide you into the prompt, and help you “draw out” images unique to the deck you choose. Every week will also include optional viewing/listening assignments to provide multiple entry points into new work. You’ll be encouraged to post your fresh drafts if you like for light criticism and positive peer feedback. By the end of class, you’ll have 7-8 fresh drafts and a number of fun ways you can use the Tarot in your writing even after the course has ended.

*While you don't HAVE to have a Tarot deck to participate in this course, you may want to find one/buy one before we begin in order to deepen your enjoyment of our time together.
