Japanese Poetry History and Forms
Jan 23rd-Jan 29th

The publishers of Local Gems Press have given lectures and presentations and panels and talks about this topic up and down the East Coast of the USA at colleges, libraries and conventions since 2016 when the Japanese Poetry Forms book first came out. We've been in the works for this for awhile, and the demand has been huge for an online course on Japanese Poetry topics...well, we're very excited after lots of development to finally bring it to you!
