I started Arriel’s class as a new writer, desperately needing inspiration and feedback from what I had previously written. It was so exciting and refreshing to have someone read my poetry, and I felt, for the first time, that I could be heard. Because of Arriel, I learned what had worked for me as a writer and what I could improve on...I am so grateful for the experience I had with her.
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Arriel’s poetry erasure workshop...I left feeling so empowered.
Arriel is an incredibly thoughtful instructor. Taking her class is like taking a class on analysis of writing while also applying it to your own writing - most classes take one or the other approach, in Arriel's class you get the gift of both.
