Join Professor Jonathan Stalling (University of Oklahoma) for a creative writing workshop to learn how to compose Classical Chinese poetry in English. Stalling will guide participants in a writing workshop coupled with a short outdoor hike to "gather seeds" (words) before returning to "sprout" them into lines and couplets and finally to "plant" these into a full "Jueju," a poem consisting of four lines, each with five to seven single-syllable words, and ending in an AABA rhyme scheme. Participants will then be encouraged to refine and submit their poems to the 2023 Newman Prize for English Jueju for a $500 prize. The deadline for the competition is Feb 15, 2023.

This workshop is free!
