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 (he/him)

Eric Scott Stevens is a writer from Georgetown, KY. When he's not spending time with his wife and kids, he's practicing bonsai, restoring typewriters, and writing his next story.

Reason for signing up:

My ninth-grade teacher encouraged me to write poetry, years ago. I think the idea of becoming a writer stemmed as a result. I enjoy reading and writing poetry, though I think I'm a better reader than writer, when it comes to this genre.
