Launch your poetry into Space!

Posted by MsMichetti on 24 April 2009




Poetry Launch by you.

 

Students in grades 7 and 8 might be interested to hear about this opportunity: A place for your poetry to be published!

Space is a digital literary magazine devoted to publishing students’ original work. This next issue of space is specifically dedicated to poetry.

 

 

 

 

 

Participating is SUPER easy.  

  • Write some poetry! Post it somewhere digital and public — on your blog, on your MySpace page, or your Tumblr account.
  • If you have a Twitter account, send your poetry (via link or a tiny tweet!) to the official Space Twitter account at @space_issue4. Be sure to include your first name, grade, and city/country where you live.
  • If you DON’T have a Twitter account, post your poetry on your blog, and alert your teacher (in case s/he missed it in his/her reader), who will send the link and the details to the Space zine.Space Logo courtesy of LindseaK

DEADLINE: MAY 24, 2009

Check out what other students have written! Past issues of Space (including poetry, art, photography, music, and more) are here:

    Hi Ms. Michetti,

    Thanks for helping us spread the word about Space! We’re hoping to get students from every continent in this next issue. We trying to make it extremely easy for teachers and students to participate. Students can submit text, audio, or video poems for Issue 4. Space is a great way for student poets to share their poems, promote their blogs and connect with others.

    I’m planning on compiling the first four issues of Space and publishing a little paperback book of poems this summer.

    Thanks again! If you have any questions, please let me know. George aka mrmayo
