Two Truths and a FIB Poetry Anthology
Coming January 2023

Picture
Have you ever played the ice breaker game "Two Truths and a Lie"? (Game: introductions made by telling three tidbits about yourself: two truths and a lie. Usually, the other people playing try to guess which of the three tidbits is a lie.) 

Well, my independently-published poetry anthology is based on this game.

Each submission should be three unpublished, original poems (written in English) following this formula:







 





















Remember: 
  • Each submission needs to introduce a well-known/general knowledge subject appropriate for ALL ages (ie. children, too!)
 
  • The SUBJECT of your poems will be the TITLE.
 
  • Poets may share a brief explanation of the poetry form(s) they used for their TRUTH poems, but all the FIBS will be Fib Poems* (see definition above).
 
  • If you don't want to write up your own brief explanation of the poetry form(s) you used for the TRUTH poems, I will collaborate with you. One goal of this anthology is to have an instructional element as well as be a joyful collection of poetry.
 
  • The three poems will be arranged in the order of Two Truths and a FIB as the title states.

⭐Please note: Adding an element of cleverness is a PLUS!  (again with the math references...sumtimes I just have to go there 😁)

📆SUBMISSION DEADLINE: 31 August, 2022 

All poets will be contacted by the end of September 2022.

👀WHERE TO SUBMIT Please send...
  • your three poems per subject (two TRUTHS and a FIB)
