Becoming a Teaching Artist is amazing. But isn't there more ways to develop your poetry career? ★ What if You could go on tour to dozens of Universities? ★ What if we learned how to publish AND sellout our own poetry books? ★ What if we hosted workshops and open mics together RIGHT here? ★ What if we improved our social media presence and fan base? ★★★ COMING SOON ★★★

Hey Poets! 3 new lessons have been added into the Classroom Resources! Check them out, download them, keep them, and customize them as you see fit! I used these lessons for a High School class, but I'm sure it can be remixed for Middle School ages as well.

As BMU Participants, we have decided to give you access to a new tab in "Classroom" where we will be sharing lesson plans you can use! These workshops are great models of how workshops are generally facilitated, but feel free to utilize any resources in the "Free lessons Resources" module! You can take the entire workshop(s) to teach in your classes, or just take parts of them that you enjoyed.

Congrats to @John Ryan for passing his final exam! Here is a poem I wrote while attending @John Ryan 's workshop. Jack: Pierce me open, Yank out my guts, Scrape my intestines, roast my seeds, Carve me a smile, Set a fire in me make me watch on your coffee table as the mouth you gave me curls rotting into myself. I hear the cracking of my seeds as you enjoy me with salt I smell myself, an aroma from your pie, your muffins, your candles How you rid of my whole but keep my parts. Remember poets! Once you're ready for your final workshop, post it here in the community so others here can attend!
