ABOUT

Established in June 2019, Little Birds Poetry is a series of editing workshops for poets and creative writers who wish to publish. Our mandate is to fine-tune original poems and short pieces of creative writing in preparation for submission to literary magazines and publishing/press houses.

Workshops take place once a month for three (3) hours a session. To get the most out of your time, and ours, let us know to expect you.
