The People Behind the Voices


As previously announced,Tennessee Voices 2021-2022 , Poetry Society of Tennessee’s anthology, is now available on Amazon.  It features results and winning poems from the 2021-2022 Monthly Contests, Poetry Festival, and Student Competitions. Creating a collection like this takes a whole lot of work, and we have a whole lot of appreciation to hand out to everyone who made this edition possible.
