====== Call for Geek Poetry ====== Our first formal project is going to be an anothology of Geek Poetry. We want to put together an anthology of poetry that speaks to the Geek inside us all. This could be about computer geekery, superheroes, lego, poetry, Doctor Who or whatever else inspires you both as a geek and as a poet. This is going to be a kickstarter funded volume, and you can find out more about it over on [[https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1662901553/1769515600?token=7006509b|Kickstarter for Geek Poetry (Preview)]] ===== What do we want ===== As it says above, poetry about being a geek, or things geeks love. The form is less important than it speaking to the inner geek, so by all means send in vilanelles, sonnets or odes, but free verse is just as acceptable. * send in 30-50 lines of poetry in a single poem, a collection or a short sequence (if you have more than this pick your best work) * also send in any notes you have about what inspired the poem, what it means to you, how it makes you feel etc. * a short (200 words or so) bio about how you've combined being a geek with writing poetry If you have any illustrations, photos or anything else that you think helps set the tone and would be useful for the anthology do send that in too. These will need to work in black and white for the print version. {{tag>poetry geek submissions opencall kickstarter}}
