Thirty days of poems, supporting Tupelo Press!

Daniel Avery Weiss is a poet, ceramicist, and archaeologist from River Forest, Illinois. When conducting fieldwork, Daniel writes one poem per day to practice his craft. At home, he enjoys writing haiku, ekphrastic poetry, and free-form. He earned his B.A. in anthropology from Kenyon College, where he was an Associate at The Kenyon Review and co-founder of FOCUS, an anthropology-oriented literary magazine. Daniel's poetry appears in The Ekphrastic Review, Shadowplay, and Wayfarer Magazine.

Tupelo Press's distinguished contribution to the literary community is great. The 30/30 Project offers writers and readers alike an opportunity to give our thanks through financial support. Your donation helps me write one poem each day for 30 days.

It's a joy to be writing my poems alongside a diverse cohort of other poets, each of whose daily poems will be placed on Tupelo Press's website for two months. Poetry from previous cohorts has been published in over 200 unique journals and presses. The value of this life that Tupelo Press offers the writing community can be seen in the brilliant language and craft that emerges from its pages.

With our shared effort, we can achieve the kind of fundraising that ensures presses like Tupelo can continue to thrive. We hear the unique voices that rise from Tupelo Press because we fund the books through which they speak. Let's fund them together.
