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.

Bio for 2019

Bit started writing at a very young age after moving to KY from SC, it started with tiny diaries which turned into duct taped notebooks that she carries everywhere. She graduated from Georgetown College in 2013 with a BA in English with an emphasis in Creative Writing. You can usually find her dancing or singing to her plant babies in her apartment with her cats Astra and Biscuit.

Reason for signing up:

I am a poet. I am always writing and have kept my work to myself for years until now. I'm not sure why it's taken so long. Writer's Anxiety is real. I would love to meet more poets and formerly used to participate in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) and loved that so much.

NOTE: Because poets have the ability to hide their badges and because registrations on LexPoMo.com only started in 2017, this may not represent an accurate portrayal of poems published by their associated poets, badges assigned to a poet, a poet's participation in the Writing Challenge, or anyone's relationship to Lexington Poetry Month, the Writing Challenge, or any other events, organizations, or persons.
