I worked with a group of LSU students and their teacher, Emily today. Sarah was there too.
We were at it all day, in a bog shed in near the graveyard in Coram's Fields (next to the museum).
I pushed them, and they responded well - we ended up with a fine bunch of poems.
Tick.
I hope they'll post some more poems up here...fingers crossed, you lot.
Welcome!
