WELCOMES YOU TO THIS SITE MAKE YOURSELF AT HOME

I believe in literary community and using my experience as an artist, community organizer, writer, and educator to help those who don’t have access to a burgeoning writing community or a college creative writing program. 

For those who don’t know where to look for poetry, I’ll help them find it. For those who want to be equipped with the tools needed to learn on their own, I’ll give it to them.

Through my posts, YouTube Channel, Patreon, consulting, and outside services I continue to bring clarity to those searching for answers.

Let’s grow the writing community together.

 

Author Bio:

Dimitri Reyes is a Boricua multidisciplinary artist, content creator, and educator from Newark, New Jersey. He has been named one of The Best New Latinx Authors of 2023 by LatinoStories.com for his most recent book, Papi Pichón (Get Fresh Books, 2023) which was a finalist for the Omnidawn chapbook contest and the Andrés Montoya Poetry Prize. His other books include Every First and Fifteenth, the winner of the Digging Press 2020 Chapbook Award, and the poetry journal Shadow Work for Poets, now available on Amazon. Dimitri’s work has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net and you can find more of his writing in Poem-a-Day, Vinyl, Kweli, & Acentos. In 2023, he was also part of the inaugural poetry cohort for the Poets & Writers Get The Word Out publishing incubator. Dimitri is also the Marketing & Communications Director at CavanKerry Press.

I’m interested in the many threads that weave into the poet, constantly aiming to stitch the academic, spoken word, performance, and page facets which are all important to the poet’s development.  My YouTube platform and Patreon page meets at the cross sections of the page, stage, and social media arts.
