Hello poets, readers, friends -

​

In anticipation of the National Poetry Month in April, several initiatives are in the works to celebrate our lives, vocations, and tribulations as writers, readers, people.

​

First and foremost, this letter to you is a call for entries - short prose, poetry, fictionalized non-fiction, non-fiction / diary, short drama, video, sound clip, photography - falling under A Day in the Life of a Poet creative umbrella.

​

Please keep in mind that while we love substance, we also prefer short form. And I have to say, in this case we are keen on substance / content rather than genre or medium in which you decide to exhibit your poetic identity. And yes, it must be about A Day in the Life of a Poet.

​

To celebrate poetry, writing, and poetic labors with its many joys, disappointments, failures, and ecstasies, we are going to do 30 entries for April - one for every day. We will be publishing entries that make it through our editorial coral reef in the Prairie Review - also, if you have not looked at the February edition of the magazine yet, here's a link: Home | The Prairie Review

​

Deadline for submissions: April 10 - although early entries are welcome as we plan publishing.

​

Prepare to receive weekly letters in April that will also be a part of our poetry festival this year.
