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

Writer, gardener, mom, reader, creek-splasher, mental illness stigma smasher, spiritually curious, politically furious, collecting brilliant friends from all the places my husband's academic journey has taken us. (lexington is my favorite)

Reason for signing up:

I am desperately in need of poetry writing accountability. I get way too precious with my writing and end up writing nothing at all because I can’t do it perfectly on the first try. I’m looking forward to learning from and being inspired by the community!
