Poet Bio: Clyde maintains his practice of daily poetry reading and writing in the San Francisco Bay Area. His legal practice keeps the lights on; his poetry practice helps him see.
Clyde's work has been published in The Mas Tequila Review, San Francisco Chronicle, and in various online venues.
Your support inspires me as, once again, I write a new poem each day 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. 30/30 project poems have been published in over 90 journals and featured in over 40 published chapbooks. The 30/30 project helps support Tupelo Press so that it can keep publishing diverse voices that might never be heard otherwise.
I offer several fun ways you can donate and be my partner in poetry. For a donation of at least $25, you can sponsor one of my 30 poems and provide a title or 1-3 words that I will incorporate into the poem. For a donation of $50 or more, I will work with you to write a poem just for you or a loved one -- this is a wonderful exercise that creates something truly unique and memorable. I invite you to sponsor multiple days if you like, or simply donate to the cause leaving me to my own poetic devices!
Your contribution is an important gesture of support for poetry and all the arts in this current fraught time. Please help me in support of this distinguished press!
