A thousand thanks to Kelli Russell Agodon for once again spearheading that bonanza of poetry goodness, the Big Poetry Giveaway. Be sure to travel to her blog to see the list of all the other participants — generosity abounds!
Last year I gave away a couple books and a subscription. This year I will award all subscriptions, to some of my favorite poetry journals. To enter, simply leave a comment to this post. On May 1, I will use the Random Number Generator to choose the winners. The prizes:
- a subscription to Cave Wall
- a subscription to Sugar House Review
- a subscription to Barn Owl Review
- a subscription to Asheville Poetry Review
Four prizes, four chances to win — Happy National Poetry Month!
