Short answer: No.
I have carpal tunnel syndrome which limits my ability to create.
I will not take on unpaid editing work due to the time consuming nature of such projects.
I will consider it. Please send me an email.
I am more likely to submit if you pay your contributors or at the very least provide a gratis copy of the anthology or magazine. I am more willing to forgo payment if the anthology is a fundraiser for a political or charitable cause, or deals with major social issues.
Short answer: NO.
If you send me unsolicited emails, your email address will be marked as spam. Thank you.
I am willing to perform at left leaning political demonstrations and charity benefits.
I am unwilling to formally endorse candidates for office, make donations, or volunteer in any capacity other than performing poetry.
I am willing to perform a featured set of poetry for a minimum of ten minutes. If given enough notice, I can write an occasional poem about political issues to be performed at a demonstration, or a poem in favor of a cause for a charity benefit.
No. I have taught self-publishing and writing poetry for causes in the past. However, I am not trained as a teacher, so I am not in the habit of giving workshops. It requires a lot of preparation on my part, and my schedule is already quite full. You may wish to inquire elsewhere.
If it is a short poetry book, and you would like me to write an official blurb, please reach out, and I will let you know yes or no. If I say no it is due to a lack of time.
