I have a piece in With You that was supposed to be published by a press whose founder was later outed as a predator. I’m honored to be included in this collection (which you may purchaser here!) and all proceeds go to support #MeToo whistleblowers in their legal efforts.
Below is a repost from Peach Mag
Don't miss this chance to stand with survivors of sexual abuse and harassment:
Peach is celebrating the one-year anniversary of With You: Withdrawn Poetry of the #MeToo Movement with a 25% off sale through this Sunday, November 17 (11:59 PM).
All profits from the anthology, which features 16 poets who withdrew work from journals and publishing houses following the #MeToo movement's exposure of predatory gatekeepers in the literary world, are donated to the TIME'S UP Legal Defense Fund, a program administered by the National Women's Law Center that supports the brave individuals who have come forward—at great risk to themselves—to seek the justice they deserve and to protect others from similar behavior. Peach has already donated more than $500 in sales of With You to the fund.
With an introductory essay by Peach Senior Poetry Editor Liz Bowen that was originally withdrawn from publication with a major American journal, this anthology serves as an example of alternatives to publishing with known abusers and those who protect them.
