Come celebrate National Poetry Month with 2 Rules of Writing!
Join 2 Rules of Writing in April for a month of poetry themed events and activities to celebrate all things poetry.
Our Annual Open Mic Poetry Reading with special guest Willie Edward Taylor Carver (author of the award winning Gay Poems for Red States) will take place on April 6 immediately following the Saturday workshop, likely at about 1 or 1:30PM. You don’t have to attend the workshop if you want to participate in the reading.

We function on the honor system, and if you cannot afford to donate, you are still welcome to join our workshops and reading.
