8. Move With the Magic of Meter. By popular demand, poet, teacher, editor, and "poetry witch" Annie Finch is now offering her renowned classes on poetic meter and form online, including an introductory webinar on meter, an intensive virtual formal poetry workshop, and special sessions for poets who want to claim the traditions of sonnets, villanelles, and ballads as your own.
Come explore the magic of your inner rhythms. No experience with, or commitment to, meter or form is necessary to enrich your poetry through Annie's vibrant coaching in structure and beat. Learn more at

Annie Finch was educated at Yale (BA) and Stanford (Ph.D) and has published 12 volumes about poetic form, most recently A Poet's Craft: A Comprehensive Guide to Making and Sharing Your Poetry (U of Michigan Press) and 6 volumes of poetry, most recently Spells: New and Selected Poems (Wesleyan UP).
