The Workshops

I'm really nervous about the workshops coming up these next few weeks. I think part of the reason that I'm so afraid is that I'm submitting Muse Work, so it's not really going to make a whole lot of sense for one. Also it's really unrefined, being Muse Work and all, so there were a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes. Finally, I feel like people might not like what I have written, or that they might not react the same way I did when I wrote it. Although, letting my works be seen by everyone in the class might help with the revision process. I've been having trouble coming up with how I should go about fixing my poems, so maybe after watching a few other people's comments will give me an idea on what I might want to do.

    I am nervous, too. Mostly because the first poem I wrote is based upon such cliche events. I put this twist in it and tried to make it different but I am afraid no one is going to really see it the way I do.

    I feel the exact same way. I'm having an anxiety attack just thinking about it. My first poem is really dumb- my roommate thinks its funny but I'm not sure how everyone else is going to take it; whether its dumb or funny. I feel like I'm just going to have a hard time reading it out loud and I'm nervous about peoples comments.

    I think that everyone is a little bit nervous. I have never been good with sharing my poems or work with other people. I am about to head to class and critiqued workshop 1's poems and felt like I really didn't have anything to say, maybe I am just not good at this type of critiquing.
