Writing Sestinas

Take a crack at a sestina or learn how to write a better one. This poetic form can build your literary muscles with repetition, diction, description, and more. Sestinas often fail because writers don’t pair the form with the right-sized story/idea, so we’ll brainstorm ideas, go over the "rules" and study how a few good sestinas work. The instructor will offer helpful insights and discuss revision. You’ll leave with a solid start on your own sestina.

All Classes listed on the Loft website take place in Central Standard Time (CST); make sure you understand your time zone, and adjust accordingly
