Princeton Poetry Meetup

Daytime Poetry Group. For poetry writers or poetry lovers. Bring a poem you wrote to share, generally no longer than 1 page. (Ask permission to read longer work; it depends on the size of the group that day). The goal is what you make it: get comfortable sharing your writing, get feedback from the group (only compliments, or more constructive/instructive remarks for improvement-- you choose). Or bring another author's poem to read (for all of our enjoyment). Prefer attendees have some experience with poetry, but this not a requisite. (No pornographic or violent poetry please and, with respects to Ginsberg, please hold the obscenities; Panera is a family place). Beginning October 2026, we will meet at Panera the first Friday of the month at 1:00. There will be have a sign on the table saying POETRY WORKSHOP GROUP. I am a (slightly) published/awarded author with an MFA in poety writing. I have led many writing groups, including the Nashville Poetry Group for 4 years.
