Poems from the Rebel Outpost

The Rebel Outpost is the creative virtual space for a close-knit group of poets who met during the inaugural year of The Stafford Challenge, 2024, during which registered participants wrote a poem (more or less) each day for a year. Members of The Rebel Outpost are mercurial: by turns serious, playful, collaborative, open to experimentation, and always eager to learn and to try new things.

Creating an anthology together is one of those things, and we hope that you enjoy the poems contained in our little book.

It seems fitting that this book is being published on William Staffords birthday, the one-year anniversary of the day these poets first met and the start of the second year of The Stafford Challenge.
