Please reach out if you would like to partner as a land trust or learn more about our project.
As of July 2024: please note that Poet applications are currently on pause as our books are full for writers through 2025 with the exceptions of Omaha and Lyons Nebraska; and near Buffalo New York. If you’re near either of those areas, and would like to write a land, please email a bio, photo, 3 example poems in separate files labelled with YourLastName (.jpg or .png for your photo, for others prefer Word but .pdf is OK too). Thank you for your interest!
Writing the Land is an attempt to honor nature and our relationship with it in a way that is as equitable and transparent as it is deep and entangled. As poets and advocates, we declare our intention that the scope of this project be as inclusive—to humans and places—as we hope the mantle of protection that land trusts offer can be. Our work in writing the land will never be complete but rather gains strength, depth, beauty, and energy from a multitude of voices.
