3/30/26: Sub Sesh: Strategy, Empowerment, Support + How-To with Talicha J.
Workshop Description: Sub Sesh is all about Strategy, Empowerment, Support, and the How-To of refining your submission process. In this 2-hour session, we’ll slow things down and talk honestly about what it means to share your work—including the sting (or as I call them, the WOMPs) of rejection.
Whether you’re submitting for the first time or ready to refresh your approach, you’ll get practical tools like a Cover Letter Checklist and Submission Tracker Template to help you stay organized and confident. We’ll focus on building a sustainable rhythm, finding your version of readiness, and taking one small step forward. If time allows, we’ll close with a brief Pomodoro-style work session—no pressure, just support and a little momentum to move your poems into the world.
