Putting your poetry out there can be scary. What if people don't like it? Worse still, what if they tell you exactly why!

This class will teach you how to handle criticism, feedback and alternative interpretations of your work.

The lessons we'll be exploring:
-   How different types of poets should approach feedback
- The best ways to handle criticism and compliments when they inevitably come
-   Reframing negativity towards your pieces
-   Looking at poetry as a mirror of the reader's inner world
- How to address alternative interpretations of your work
- Ways to ask for and receive useful and actionable feedback
- What to do when you have the bruised ego blues

At the end of this class you will have the mindset and tools needed to feel comfortable sharing your poetry with the world - no matter what it says about it. You will learn strategies and mental reframes to implement in response to unwanted feedback and know who to ask for advice and how to receive it.

Lets get writing!
