The 30/30 Project is an extraordinary challenge and fundraiser for Tupelo Press, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) literary press. Each month, volunteer poets run the equivalent of a “poetry marathon,” writing 30 poems in 30 days, while readers “sponsor” and encourage them every step of the way.

For the month of June 2025, David Estringel will participate in this challenging project, writing a poem everyday for 30 days. Your support—whether messages of encouragement or monetary donations—are greatly appreciated.
