I think teaching a poetry course would be cool...or having it as part of one of the self-study courses so you could pick how many poems to have reviewed. The problem would be getting solid poetry experts to be the instructors. I have some poetry in print but I'm a long long way from being any kind of expert.

Poetry isn't my strong point!

I just wondered. Because I know poetry is pretty popular. I imagine it would be hard to find an expert that wasn't like a college professor or something.

Well, by "expert" in the context we would do at ICL, you'd look for someone who had written a LOT of poetry for publication and probably rhyming picture books as well -- so "expert" on writing poetry that sells to publishers. I know a number of people who fit the bill quite nicely but they also would have trouble fitting in time to be instructors.

Well, I will try to get a bunch of poetry published....then I can do it.  Tongue

Looks like I am doing fiction, that works.
