Workshops on Neopoet are groups that meet for a certain period of time to focus on a certain aspect of poetry. Each workshop participant is asked to critique all the other poems submitted into a workshop. A workshop leader helps coordinate -- they set the agenda, give participants feedback on whether their submissions and critique are at they level expected of them, and after the workshop is over, give feedback to participants.
To join a workshop, first find one that is of interest to you. Once you have found the right workshop (and verified that it is open -- you can find this out in the description below), you can apply to join the workshop.

It may sound funny and needless, but what is a cliche, and when does an expression become one? Does it need to exist across cultures?

If you wish to be involved, simply PM Chrys and she will add you as a participant.
It is not really appropriate for you to just add comment in this workshop, as Chrys has to focus on the participants only.
Join, what harm can be done, you are most welcome and you may enjoy it.

Hey Chrys,
I'm confused, if there are 8 enrolled in this workshop that would make 24 cliches at 3 per person. For 9 participants there should be 27 entered. (I make 9) Is the list considered to be complete, now?
Can you un-confuse me?

That would bring the numbers the cliche nos. to 24... Assuming that 2 more of the leaders would submit to the challenge, that would bring the numbers to 30.
However, since Dan, Yenti and I already submitted our cliche poems, that point would seem to be moot.

Voting
Ian,
since Chrys has asked us to vote, it would be right for us to honour that request. Your opening comment "There is no need to vote on anything in the workshop"..is going to cause confusion between the participants.
Chrys is the leader and has asked us to vote, so vote we should since we agreed to comply with the syllabus.
Afterall, the voting is a fun element and has been the catalyst for the banter seen so far in the workshop. Also, you stand a very good chance of winning and we all like prizes!! and it will really upset Eddie if you do!! LOL!
I totally agree with everything else you've said and am pleased to know the exceptional Poetry Forms has included some of what we have discussed during the workshop.
Kind regards,

The proof in the pudding will be making it an on-going sucess, and that falls on all of us.

this Cup mania is really
this Cup mania is really getting out of control...keep your wits about yourselves guys lest you get a shock come Monday!! :)..it could very well end up with just a certificate from Chrys reading "Thank You Folks for messing around with the Cliches and then cleaning up the garbage"...lol..

What about the other winner?
Hi Chrys..
Thanks for this update....Cat certainly is a worthy winner...i thought you had said there would be two contest 1 for the poem with Cliches and 1 for the one without use of cliches....so who is the winner of the 2nd contest or did she win both?...
i once again wish to thank you and your team for successfully conducting this exercise..it was a pleasure to participate in it...

WHAT!
What!
Cat wins!
I have already prepared my winners speech and everything!
At keast I have access to the newsletter, it would be a shame if I accidentally added my poem to the newsletter and not Cat's!!
LOL!
Well done Cat, and well done everyone, it was fun indeed.
Thanks Chrys for another well organised workshop.
I'm ready for the next one.
regards,
HS
ps. so pleased Ian didn't win, we would have never heard the last of it!! LOL!

Thank You Everyone
For your congrats. I'm sorry I couldn't be here for the second half, due to an accident. I banged my wrist into a doorknob and sprained it, making it very hard to type in a brace. Not to mention pain... pain is a good deterrent. Thanks again. I am better now.
always, Cat

cat,
sorry you hurt your hand...hopefully it was your writing hand so you'll be out of action during Chrys's next workshop allowing the rest of us to win something in your absence!!
LOL!
Good to have you back and congratulations!
