The Paper Balloon wants your poems!

The Paper Balloon is a literary newsletter that seeks to connect a new generation of writers  through their poetry. Its motto: "a literary newsletter that celebrates paper, pens, and postage stamps"; in other words, literature unfiltered by screens and other digital media. The Paper Balloon will publish short poems and opinion pieces as well as small drawings/doodles.



If you would like to be a part of this as a writer, send a poem, short opinion piece, or small drawing to [e-mail] for consideration. Authors of accepted submissions get a free copy of the newsletter (no other compensation is possible right now).



If you would like to join us as a reader, please send your address to the email above and $1.00 via paypal to the same address for the first issue.
