Keep literary voices independent & diverse as I write 30 poems in 30 days!
Join me in support of independent presses and the written word.
I’ve spent my life believing that every person, every landscape, every myth, and every ordinary moment has a poem hidden inside it. Writing and reading poetry have never been hobbies for me—they’ve been a way of paying attention, of making sense of the world, and of connecting with other people.
I’m participating in the Tupelo 30/30 because I want to help ensure those opportunities continue for the next generation of poets and readers. Literature has given me friendship, purpose, and a way of connecting deeply with the world. Supporting the work of independent presses is one small way to give something back.
