Studio 4 with Kathleen Jamie and Lesley Harrison is now open for applications.​

​

These intensive courses will give participants the opportunity to discuss and develop work in progress with North Sea Poet tutors over a course of six weeks. Some Studios will be led by one tutor, or two tutors leading the classes solo on alternate weeks, so participants can gain insights from their different perspectives. 

​

The courses are designed to allow writers to hone existing work and discuss technique, but also to develop their own analytical skills. Participants will be encouraged to engage with one another’s work, so poems for discussion will be submitted at least two days prior to each class. 

 

Each course is limited to eight participants to allow for concentrated and thorough feedback from the tutors and fellow poets, and so that each student can workshop one poem every week. 

​

North Sea Poetry Studios would be ideally suited to poets with some history of publication, perhaps working towards a pamphlet or first collection.

​

Cost: £360 for the six-week course

The course is restricted to eight participants.​​​​
