The Tower Poetry Summer School 2008

26-29 August 2008

Ten young poets were given the opportunity to develop their writing and critical skills through the annual Tower Poetry Summer School at Christ Church between 26-29 August 2008. The residential course included exciting and challenging workshops run by Jane Draycott and Frances Leviston and an entertaining reading/discussion by David Morley.

The tutors, plus Peter McDonald, Director of Tower Poetry, were amongst those who thoroughly enjoyed the evening. For further details of the evening see David's blog on http://blogs.warwick.ac.uk/morleyd/ or the Tower Poetry group on Facebook.

Seasick Blue, the anthology of students' poems, edited by Jane Draycott and Frances Leviston, is available to order.
