InVerse: Poetry Writing Workshop

Awesome Growth

I learnt wonderful insights and styles of poetry and enjoyed myself with a wonderful group at Inverse Poetry Writing Workshop. Beautiful explanation by Pervin Saket and the way she put up different forms of poetry made it easier to understand and implement.
Well coordinated and organized, appreciation to Pervin Saket, Aziz Rajabali & Living Bridge team.
looking forward for another one like this !

An Excellent Intro to Writing Poetry

The InVerse Poetry Writing Workshop was a wonderful introduction to the world of poetry and words. Pervin’s workshop covers the basics as well as the nuanced elements that most mentors may miss mentioning! Pervin reassured us participants to allay our fears and believe in our voices while focusing on our inner and outer sensibilities.

I found the workshop extremely useful, especially as she shared several resources to follow up on our learning and get our writer-poet selves exposed to new and old works/forms of poets/poetry. She gave many insights into the publishing industry and editor’s requirements, apart from tips on practicing writing while learning to trust our instincts and push our boundaries of perception and knowledge. As the ‘Overview’ of the workshop aptly sums up, “InVerse will connect word and wonder, image and imagination, questions and quests.”

I’m hoping there is a next level to this workshop, where we explore more kinds of poetry and writing methods and dig deeper into the delightful world of poetry.

Poetry Workshop

The two-day workshop was managed, 3 hours each day, was structured well and managed wonderfully by Pervin. Good balance between learning about the craft and practice. Thank you

For better and for verse

For someone who hadn’t penned a poem since childhood, this session was an eye-opener as well as an inspiration. What was very useful was the blend of the poetic and the practical. Alongside showcasing examples of different genres of poetry and encouraging spontaneity in the wannabe poets, Pervin also provided tips on how to embellish our experiments and carrying them through to the publication stage. It was also great interacting with my fellow poets in the class. Thank you, Pervin, and Aziz, who made the whole process so seamless.

Wonderful Experience!

Extremely pertinent content and a very proficient mentor. Was introduced to different forms of poetry, previously unknown to me, via discussions and exercises. Gave me a comprehensive view especially of the recent top-notch poets and how to create poetry on their lines. The workshop, the mentor and Living Bridge are highly recommended.
