My poems can make a difference!

Poet Bio: Ronald Dzerigian received his MFA in poetry from California State University, Fresno, and his poems can be found in—or are forthcoming from—Australian Book Review, Crosswinds Poetry Journal, Prairie Schooner, RHINO, and the Academy of American Poets' website (poets.org). He is a writing consultant for graduate students at his alma mater and resides in a small farming community with his wife and two daughters.

His poems often focus on inherent change and are born from the air of California's central valley. The 30/30 project comes as a welcomed challenge because he believes that hard work and productivity, in the face of all odds, is how we truly contribute, with clear minds, to the understanding of what it means to be human.

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.
