New Release! Ink to Paper Volume 9

The 9th volume of Ink to Paper celebrates the past, present, and future of poetry and the Poetry Society of Indiana, est. 1941. We are proud to present a platform that not only prints Hoosier poets, but poets from all over the world. There are many themes throughout this anthology, because the poems are pulled from three contests: Spring Fling Members-Only Contest, Poetry Society of Indiana Annual Contest, and Young Voices Poetry Contest, which is for children only. We hope these poems inspire the reader and continue to encourage creativity in all.
