Guest: Meryl Pugh
What can a prose writer learn from thinking like a poet? The poet employs metaphor, simile, sound, rhythm and precision of language to create intensity, mood and tone. These elements can be in service to the prose writer too. Join us tonight online in conversation with poet and author Meryl Pugh. She’s the author of three pamphlets and one collection of poetry, Natural Phenomena. Her latest book Feral Borough, part herbarium, part bestiary and part memoir, was published in 2022. She holds a PHD in Critical and Creative Writing from UEA and teaches creative writing, mostly at the Poetry School.
