Support a month of new poetry

For the next month, I'll be attempting something I've never done before. Writing a brand-new poem. Every. Single. Day.

As part of Tupelo Press's 30/30 Project, each day's poem will be posted publicly—fresh from the page, before revision, before polishing, while it's still discovering what it wants to become. You'll be able to follow along in real time as thirty poems come to life over thirty days. I have no idea where the month will lead -- I'll be as surprised as you are, and that's part of the fun.

This project is also a fundraiser for Tupelo Press, an outstanding independent nonprofit literary press located in Western Mass. Every donation made here goes directly to Tupelo Press, helping them publish adventurous new voices, support emerging writers, and keep poetry thriving.

If you've ever enjoyed something I've written, attended one of my readings, or simply believe that independent literary organizations matter, I hope you'll consider making a contribution. No gift is too small, and every donation is a vote for the continued existence of spaces where poetry can be written, published, and discovered.

Writing a poem a day is equal parts thrilling and terrifying. There won't be time to overthink. I'll be following instinct, curiosity, and whatever unexpected paths the month opens up.

Whether you choose to donate, read along, or just cheer me on, I'm grateful to have you here.

Thank you for supporting my work and the incredible mission and community Tupelo Press has built!
