I'm writing a paper for school on how poetry is promoted in North America, now and in the future.

If you have some ideas on how poetry is promoted now and how effective the promotion is, and how it might be promoted in the future, please respond.

Your ideas and comments will be much appreciated.

Thanks.

You might want to start here--
http://www.netpoets.com/

And I found out the hard way, that it is public. Very.

You will find in your travels, a host of:

  Public poetry readings
  Public poetry contests
  Poetry posting forums
  Poetry online sites

This site happens to be a leader in the online poetry world, with approximately 13,000 members in the forums alone - and the main site, http://netpoets.com  - which has hosted 161,513,412 visits, averaging 26,643 visits daily, 29,333 in the past 24 hours... and lots more statistics that would more than convince you that poetry is a thriving literary medium, and the Internet is its primary contemporary outlet.

Happy day

That website lead me to this one actually, does that mean that this site, as in pipTalk is the leader in online poetry?

Also, Mars2253.

Poetry is apart of almost every genre of music.

Consider that in your writing.
