About Hafsa

I'm a writer and poet who has been published or has work forthcoming in more than 10 well-known literary magazines and journals such as Electric Literature, Pleiades, The Offing, Up the Staircase Quarterly, AAWW: The Margins, South Dakota Review, Kitchen Table Quarterly, The Maine Review, & elsewhere. I'm primarily a poet but also write flash fiction which has also been received well in the literary world. I graduated from Bennington College in 2022 with a triple major, one of which was literature/creative writing. Throughout my time at college and post-graduation, I've extensively worked in the publishing industry or with literary organizations such as Copper Canyon Press, Kneerim & Williams, and Brooklyn Poets. I also serve as a poetry editor for Muzzle Magazine.

Drawing from my experience as a published poet, literature major from Bennington College, and work in the publishing industry (interned at poetry presses such as Copper Canyon), I will assist students at all levels of learning in generating new poems, understanding poetic forms, genres, and general jargon, learning how to edit their poems, and how to successfully submit their work to literary magazines and graduate school programs (MFA).

Lessons will be conducted via Zoom and lesson plans will be personalized according to what the student would like to focus on.

General lesson plans will include reading new poems together and analyzing them, generating new poetry via writing prompts, learning about and practicing both novel and traditional poetic forms (everything from a sestina to a duplex), and editing poetry to submit to different literary avenues.

If the student is interested in applying to MFA programs for poetry, I will help with curating a school list, writing statements of purpose/personal statements for programs, creating literary CVs/resumes and editing writing samples.
