Robert Lee Brewer taught three hour workshop at Writers Circle Today.

A big thank you to the poets who came to Writers circle today for a class with Robert Brewer. Thank you for leaving off the perfume and other fragrance. I was able to enjoy every minute with these intelligent writers and with a very interesting instructor.

Although Robert has an important job with F & W media which publishes the Writer's Market, Poet's Market and Writer's Digest magazine, he is humble and unassuming about himself and his poetry. He wants to help writers as I do, so we have the same goals. And he wants to communicate through his poetry. I also feel that my purpose in writing prose or poetry is to communicate.

Here are a few photos I made of our class today.

 Robert Lee Brewer gave tips on revision and a handout to guide us in that endeavor. He also read to us from his new collection,
Solving the World's Problems, and from Escape, a chapbook.
