✨ Top 10 Subscribers Still with Us!

Almost twelve years and counting. Who are they?

We went back to see who’s been with the Every Day Poems community since the beginning. That’s almost twelve years ago!

Imagine how many poems have given these readers insight, solace, and inspiration since then. Imagine how many cups of tea (or coffee) accompanied their reading. Wow.

The Top 10 Subscribers

In order of subscription date (sometimes down to the hour, to see who came first), here are the Top 10 Subscribers who are still with us after almost twelve years:

1. Glynn Young (are we surprised? ;-)

2. Karen Fendick

3. Sandra Heska King

4. Megan Willome

5. Maureen Doallas

6. Karen Swallow Prior

7. Angela Alaimo O’Donnell

8. Tara Owens

9. Danielle Tippy

10. William Joiner

Some of these readers have also been quite active over at Tweetspeak Poetry, even occasionally writing for us; and some became editors or contributing writers. (We love the Commit Poetry series from Sandra Heska King. And Angela Alaimo O’Donnell has given us comedic and thoughtful insight into the sonnet, the ode, the cento, and the villanelle—as well as beautiful reflections on haiku.) Four of these readers (so far) have also become authors with T. S. Poetry Press.

It would be fun to know: how long have you been reading Every Day Poems?

What keeps you reading?

And, do you have any favorite poems you’ve kept over the years?

We’d love to hear. :)
