tupelo press 30/30 project
hey guys!
so if you don’t already know, tupelo press (a non-profit press) runs a fundraiser called the 30/30 project where volunteer poets sign up to write 30 poems in 30 days in an effort to fundraise for the press. & for the month of july, I’m gonna be one of these poets!
I’m pretty amped for this opportunity to get some work out there & to connect with other poets, while simultaneously supporting a press that works hard to provide an awesome platform for writers.
my poems will be published daily on the 30/30 section of the tupelo press website. any support you can toss my way will mean the world, even if it’s just words of encouragement or liking/sharing my work! & if you wanna participate in the fundraiser by donating through my page, the link to do so is below. (& I've included some fun incentives!)
I’ve included some more info about the 30/30 project below, and I’ll also be trying to keep up with the challenge here, posting a photo of each poem every day that can be shared to help spread the word about the challenge — so make sure to sign up for my newsletter so you don’t miss any info or updates!
THE CHALLENGE
the 30/30 project is a month-long challenge in which volunteer poets write and submit 30 poems in 30 days in an effort to raise money for tupelo press - a non-profit publisher focused on creating a space for poets to share their work with the world.
every day, one of my poems will be posted on the the tupelo press website, and I will be joining an amazing community of fellow writers who have had work accepted in over 90 different journals, and in over 40 published chapbooks
this challenge will give me the opportunity to give back to the writing community and to share my work with a wide audience! your support in this endeavor of mine means the world, and anything you are able to donate will help tupelo press continue to elevate poetry and get it out into the world!
