Testimonials for Previous Workshops

The workshop with Karan was inspiring & a bridge for community. The care & passion he had is felt through the way they lead and teach the classes. I would take another workshop again.

Mateo Perez Lara for “The Perfect Prose Poem” run by Karan Kapoor

Karan was a kind and humble instructor, gently nudging us to participate. It created a familiar and inviting atmosphere. Prose poems are my new favorite form to explore.

Irini Mavroudis for “The Perfect Prose Poem” run by Karan Kapoor

ONLY POEMS has a stellar reputation. Every aspect of it is deeply considered and informed, so it's no surprise that an ONLY POEMS-run workshop was just as packed with value, variety and depth. Many organizations preach accessibility, but Karan really embodies an openness that makes engaging with the workshop effortless. I walked away feeling inspired and empowered!

F.M Papaz for “The Perfect Prose Poem” run by Karan Kapoor

I think Karan did a wonderful job, was super kind & inclusive, & welcomed everyone, no matter where they were in their writing career. I very much liked his style. We were a shy group, but he really did his best to encourage everyone to participate. It was so nice to be in a less pretentious space where everyone's thoughts & experiences mattered & were important. Thank you, Karan!

Anonymous Attendee for “The Perfect Prose Poem” run by Karan Kapoor

I so admire how you conducted the workshop.  Your command of and love for the material was inspiring.  And, as evidence of how much I learned, I have more questions now than before!

Richard Weistheimer for “The Ghazal Workshop” run by Shannan Mann

This was such an excellent workshop—you're so knowledgeable and personable and make it all so fun! The time flew by, and I was sorry to see/hear it end. I look forward to more workshops if/when you can offer them.
