Thanks so much to everyone who participated in our National Poetry Month “Show Us Your Poetry Jeans” Project. We love doing special projects with you over the year, as well as celebrating fun days like our upcoming Take Your Poet to Work Day.
As promised, we’ve put together a beautiful e-book featuring your photos, poems and/or your lines as part of Cento Poems.
We’ve just sent it to all current Tweetspeak supporters at the $15 to $100+ levels. For our general readers and those included in the e-book, it will be made available for free download during National Poetry Month 2016.
If you’re interested in supporting all the poetry for life you find here day after day, you can “just say thanks” now for everything you love and want to bring to more people in the world:
$15 • Tea and Cinnamon Toast — supports goodies for one Mischief Café
$30 • Keep the Basic Boat Afloat — supports about one article at Tweetspeak
$100 • Just Say Thanks—One-Time Love! — supports the printing and sending of 20 posters for Poetry at Work Day, or several articles at Tweetspeak
Or, if you’re looking for mutual support (where we provide links to your website and—where applicable—promotion), you could check out our Supporters Packages, which are available at the $15, $45, and $125 levels.
And, if you’re looking for even more growth and personalized attention, we also have a Poets and Writers Career Package, starting at $975 and on up to $2, 000. These packages go a long way to supporting your work and ours, both.
But, remember, you needn’t support Tweetspeak to get your free copy of Casual. It will be available for free download during National Poetry Month 2016! See you then. (And hopefully before then, too.)

Wow! The book is beautiful! Thank you for including my poem. It was a sentimental poem for me, which makes it even more special for me to see it in such a wonderful compilation. Thanks so much again.
