All month long I'll be writing poems, slicing lines, crafting rhymes--all to help Tupelo Press raise money for the literary arts. Grants are not being funded as they once had been, and small presses are looking to new ways to raise money for projects. Tupelo Press is hosting writing-thons. Today I have to step up to the starting line. I'm running for them, and small presses everywhere.
Make a donation, which you can do in any number of small ways, and I'll write a poem for you. You let me know what you want it written about, and if there is a style you prefer. I'm taking commissions, baby, hells to the yeah.
Please consider donating. It doesn't cost that much and you can walk away with a book, or a subscription for your generosity, not to mention a commissioned poem.
HOW TO DONATE:
The three ways you can donate to a worthy literary cause:
1. Subscribe to Tupelo Press!

Two important REMINDERS:
1. Be sure your supporters include your name so that you get credit for their sponsorship.
2. If your donor would like a tax receipt they should provide their mailing address.
(Note: Subscribers are not issued a tax receipt because they are receiving 9 books,
the value of which is more than their $99 purchase.)
