Golden Walkman, a podcast journal, occasionally gives submitters a challenge: write poetry that responds to a musical piece. We call these our “Dialogue Submissions.” This workshop will give attendees a chance to write poetry as a musician plays music to inspire them. Workshoppers will have time to share their newly-created work at the end of the session and will be encouraged to submit their work to Golden Walkman afterwards, for we will release a special issue of poems first drafted during the workshop later in the year (they’ll have time to revise their work first).
