A Call for Submissions

Poet, activist, public speaker (and more), Etan Thomas, is spearheading a book project called "Voices of Our Future." Writers ages 13 to 25 are encouraged to submit verse or prose for possible inclusion in this book. He is looking to wrap up the project soon.

You can paste the URL below to learn more about the project.(Could not make my blog link to it for some reason.) I also encourage you to do a search on Etan Thomas Voices Future, and read some of the articles written about and by this man, the project, and about his 2005 collection of poetry, "More Than an Athlete." He truly is more than a professional basketball player. (Currently with Oklahoma City Thunder, previously the Washington Wizards).
