Welcome to a new workshop by Buddy Wakefield! Writers Anonymous is a generative, edit-heavy and feedback-focused five-week writing course developed for all levels. 10am Pacific, five Sundays in September and October.

Buddy’s writing workshop exceeded every expectation. His commitment to caring for his students is impossible to misinterpret and his curriculum beneficial to artists of all levels and types. Come for the poetry, stay for the legacy.
—Ryan Hildebrand, Austin, TX

I don’t claim to be a writer. But I have and will enthusiastically sign up for every workshop I can because I love the space Buddy has created.
—Bria Woodyard, New York, NY

Buddy’s feedback, guidance and support during the workshops have made an important and lasting impact on me and my work.

Buddy helped me create an award-winning packet of poems that led to a book deal. I’m not being hyperbolic when I say that I couldn’t have done it without him. The poems we worked on together are some of my favorite poems I’ve ever written. Buddy knows how to bring the best out in his students with thorough, actionable and creative critiques.  -Lexi Pelle, NJ

My poems were prisoners. Whale songs in a fishbowl. Buddy Wakefield smashed the bowl and set my words free. I have been writing poems for decades. Technically firm, but too precious, too prideful, too lazy. Buddy has helped me to develop technical skills while shaking the nervous framework that blunted the substance in my writing.
