Help us keep on giving.

Sponsored by Workhorse, Lexington Poetry Month is an easy to use platform for poets to publish and share their work in an attractive way. The community is supportive and diverse, commenting and encouraging one another throughout June. Money we raise goes to maintaining the cost of the website and publishing the yearly anthology. Our goals are to provide every poet (~150) a copy of the anthology, lower printing costs, and expand opportunities offered during Lexington Poetry Month, such as featured readings and poetry workshops.

Cathy Perkins | LexPoMo 2017

Reason for signing up:

I was so distressed last year when I was unable to get onto Accents blog for LexPoMo, due to techno difficulties that as soon as I got the email to sign up I jumped at the opportunity. I enjoy reading poems by my peers and the writers in Lexington. I want to be part of this community of great writers, poets and people.
