HIEU NGUYEN - “It Was The Winter…”

“Nostalgia forgets to visit this street. It is too busy with tree houses and rope swings; it doesn’t have time for all this grey.”

Button Poetry’s own HIEU NGUYEN is a finalist in the 2013 Write Bloody Publishing Contest. Reblog (and like this video on youtube) to help Hieu win a publishing deal!

AHH! I wrote a book, and that book is a finalist for the Write Bloody Publishing book contest! Part of the contest is seeing how many YouTube “likes” I can get for my submission video. If you have the time please like (thumbs up) the video (on youtube) and if you feel like sharing/reblogging the link that would totally not hurt my feelings. BAH!!! Thank you!!

BOOST Tara Hardy

A health fundraiser for beloved poet Tara Hardy.

Our dear friend Tara Hardy is in need of our help. Since undergoing chemotherapy and enduring various visits to the hospital, she is left saddled with some very steep medical bills. By donating you’d help ease some of the financial burden Tara continues to face. If you’re unable to donate, you can read a sampling of her work and/or purchase Bring Down the Chandeliers from our online store. Tara is a dear member of our Write Bloody family and your ongoing support is very much appreciated. Please share this and repost. In the meantime, please keep her in your thoughts.

Cheers.

This is important. She is important. Please give what you can.

Boost to the moon and back. Hearts can’t contain how we love this human.

Again. She is incredibly important.
