Brigid Cooley (she/her) wrote her first poem when she was 7 years old and hasn't been able to stop since. Her debut collection of poems, “family recipes,” was published by Kelsay Books in 2023. While her work has been published internationally, she takes special pride in having grown up a "San Antonio poet." She participated in the Tupelo Press 30/30 Project in November of 2023. Brigid now lives with her husband, Zach, and loves to go bouldering, read books, participate in musical theatre and teach poetry workshops in her free time.

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.

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!
