When State laureate Alexandria Peary asked me to co-host her Submit-a-thon event with her I was super thrilled. It was Covid lockdowns and Alex had this really great idea to take the process of submitting poetry to magazines and turn it into a fun group project. Using Zoom and the Submittable website with some time limits the group would see how many poems they could get submitted at once. With Alex’s encouragement combined with the energy of the group many poems were effortlessly submitted to multiple zines. Also we had a tutorial on how to write a cover letter and special guest Alice Fogel!
