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 a cohort of 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 200 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.
The support of diverse voices is particularly important to me, as a Black, domestic, transracial adoptee who was raised in rural New England by white, adoptive parents. My writing focuses on themes of race, adoption, identity reclamation, US history, politics, and pop culture. I have been published in Raising Mothers, and have performed my work at several venues throughout NYC. I am a graduate of the 2023 Brooklyn Poets Mentorship Program, and attended the 2023 Tin House Summer Workshop and the Yale Writers’ Workshop. I am currently shopping my first full length poetry collection, as well as working on a novel.
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!
