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.

Maggie Ruth | LexPoMo 2020

Bio for 2020

Maggie Ruth is a rising junior. When she is not writing, she enjoys cooking, singing, gardening, and reading.

Reason for signing up:

I want to believe I can convince myself to write everyday but I know that's not the case. However, I tend to follow through if there's some sort of structure to hold me accountable so I decided that this would be a great opportunity to get me writing seven days a week. I also tend to write more if there's social interaction around it.
