Gratitude // Wrap Up

The Underground Writing Podcast is an audio channel focusing on student writing. Flowing in and through this river, as it were, are interviews, guests, and organizational updates, as well as two smaller tributaries: Linebreak (a single piece of writing) and Kite (our student writing audio zine).

Show Notes:

Today’s featured letters and feedback were written by students and ONE PAGE participants.  This episode’s featured poem, “A Day So Happy,” was by Victor.  You can support students like these by spreading the word about our podcast, purchasing student writing anthologies in our website store, and becoming a supporter.  You can join our support team by donating to help our ongoing work via our website’s secure donation portal here: https://undergroundwriting.org/donate

Announcements:

We regularly hear from folks asking how they can be involved with—or help out—Underground Writing.  We’re grateful for the interest.  Please check out our “Get Involved” page on our website: https://undergroundwriting.org/get-involved  Also, to highlight a few inroads for getting involved:  1) If you live locally, consider joining us for our once-a-month re/vision volunteer day (https://undergroundwriting.org/revision),  2) Spread the word about our Letters to a Young Inmate initiative (https://undergroundwriting.org/letters-to-a-young-inmate), and  3) Consider partnering with us by becoming a patron-donor – we’re only able to do our work because of our individual donors and grant partners . . . and we are always in need of these donor-partnerships so that we can continue our work (https://undergroundwriting.org/donate).

We’re repeating ourselves, but it’s good to say again . . . Listeners!—You can also help us by writing a review on Apple Podcasts or other outlets. And something new—we may even read some of them on the air. Podcast reviews help other like-minded folks find out about our show, as well as our broader work. Any help you can lend to this effort would be greatly appreciated.
