Adopt-A-Poet

Adopt-A-Poet on YouTube

ok, so maybe i'm having a little too much fun with the Adopt-A-Poet poster and video. but what if it was in vogue, hip, or whatever passes for cool these days to support underground authors and publishers. all we need is one Angelina Jolie and they'll be lining up for it. help me spread these around and send me any ideas you have on the subject. also- any celebrity addresses would be helpful.

What is Underground?

Project U Radio: Voices from The Literary Underground aired last night for the first time on blogtalk radio. Hosts Lynn Alexander and Paul Corman-Roberts were joined by callers Jack Varnell, Kevin Ridgeway, F.N. Wright and Michele McDannold on the topic of "What does Underground mean to you?". Late in the show, a mysterious sock monkey called in keeping things from getting too heavy. It was a good discussion well worth your time. If you missed it, you can now listen to the on-demand episode in the archives. Next Week, Frankie Metro will share hosting duties with Lynn and Paul. The topic will be on the relationship between publisher and author. What do they owe to one another before the book and after the book. Please call in and share your views. All are welcome!

Citizens for Decent Literature Call for Submissions

Citizens for Decent Literature Online is a new quarterly poetry publication founded by Michele McDannold and edited by Michael D. Goscinski. Submissions are open now for the inaugural issue. This is a themed issue and the full guidelines can be read on the website. The deadline for submissions is December 24, 2011. We are looking for new and established poets not afraid to speak their mind. No matter how perverse, gritty, ballsy, political, gay, anti-establishment, women’s-lib, sweet, cynical, absurd, misogynistic, suicidal or rum soaked the poem is, if it’s well written and says something, there’s a good chance it’ll find a home here. No simul subs, reprints considered. Response in four weeks or less.
