Paper Poetry

We are living in the digital world, covered in the autonomous aspects & tracked motions of life. Yet, somehow we are losing some critical elements. Keyboards, touchpads, & speech-to-text are there, but we believe that handwritten words on paper is still meaningful to some poets.

Paper Poetry is very excited to be an official sponsor of this year’s Medium Draft Day on April 25.

We are extending an invitation to our wonderful community of poets to join us for this Medium-wide event.

Medium Draft Day is an opportunity for all of us to be nudged into finishing and publishing a story that has been languishing in drafts — and for new writers to be encouraged to publish their first story.

Writers have the choice of self-publishing or submitting their stories to their favourite publication. We would love you to submit your poetry to Paper Poetry where it will be displayed in a special ‘Medium Draft Day 2025’ section on our homepage.

Please use the tag, Draft Day 2025, when submitting your story.

As part of the Draft Day event, Medium is running an all-day Writing Room on Zoom on Friday April 25, from 9am to 7pm ET for anyone looking for extra support, feedback, motivation, writing prompts and more. You can register to join the Zoom event here or click on the button below —

We welcome new writers to join our publication. If you would like to join our poetry-writing community at Paper Poetry, please add your information in the Typeform and we will contact you shortly. Alternatively, you can send us an email at paperpoetrymedium@gmail.com with your Medium @ handle.

Cheers,

Paper Poetry — Handwritten words matter
