Karen Holmes will teach a three hour workshop July 15, 2017. Karen is an excellent poet as well as a teacher of poetry.
I enjoyed a class with Karen at John C. Campbell Folk School earlier this year. We discussed lyrics, listened to music and then wrote poems or lyrics. She has taught at my studio in the past and everyone enjoys her workshops. She has been a good friend of mine for more than ten years.
Karen has her own business but finds time to facilitate a poetry critique group in Atlanta where she lives most of the time. She also has a house in Hiawassee, GA on Lake Chatuge. Once each month, except in winter, she holds an Open Mic in Blairsville, GA.
Her poetry collection, Untying the Knot, has been highly praised with excellent reviews. The knot that Karen was untying was her marriage of over 30 years. I like that this book is filled with the pain she felt and still endures at times, but also includes humorous poems. I was one of many read this book through in one sitting. I could not put it down.
If you Google Karen Paul Holmes you will see page after page of her publications.
Staci Lynn Bell said, "I thoroughly enjoyed Karen's class. Karen was well organized and kept the class flowing. The exercises given were creative, structured and informative. Her passion and knowledge invaluable."
