My poems can make a difference!

Poet Bio: Lauren Boisvert is a poet majoring in Creative Writing at the University of Central Florida. She has had poems published in print and online in journals such as Mochila Review, Young Writers Anthology, YARN, Circe's Lament, and The Broken Plate. Last year she was chosen as runner up in Poets Billow's 2015 Pangaea Prize for Poetry. Her work can be found at laboisvert.tumblr.com.

Author Statement: My personal poetry goals are really to grow as a poet, and to not let myself get into a writing rut. I want to challenge myself in a way I never have before and strengthen my skills while also having fun with my writing. A lot of the time I don't get a chance to write for weeks, or I want to write but nothing's coming to me, and I think writing a poem once a day will give me that extra push to better myself as a poet.

Your support gives me vital inspiration as I write for thirty days this month.

Tupelo Press provides the canvas, I bring my words, accompanied by other fine poets, writing thirty poems in thirty days, all ours to edit and submit as we wish. 30/30 poems have been taken by over 90 journals and featured in over 40 published chapbooks, all so Tupelo Press can keep publishing exquisite and diverse voices that might never be heard otherwise.

Every dollar gives me confidence to write more, and helps the press place more poems in gorgeous books. Help me to help this distinguished press. Give today!
