FEED THE HOLY: A New Look

FEED THE HOLY: A New Look

It's almost a year now since I founded FEED THE HOLY, a literary journal on Blogspot. I wanted to provide a place for poets and writers to explore their sacred human journey during fraught times. 

Contributors share their love of nature and other things that bring them joy. They write of how they nurture community life and spread love and kindness. They also explore tough topics, such as recovering from illness and loss, and they share their grief and sorrow.

I am elated. FEED THE HOLY has almost 200 contributors, over 320 posts, and nearly 37,000 views. But numbers do not matter as much as what is in the hearts of the contributors and readers, who comment and share the posts.

Some problems with the journal's first templates (or themes) led me to explore others. I hope this new theme is more stable.

Take a look at the new template!

The Sidebars

The left sidebar features popular posts, including the Submission Guidelines and the Submission Call. It's essential to read both before submitting. 

Also, take a look at the other popular posts listed in the left sidebar and the current posts in the central column. 

Unfortunately, the template does not offer a LIKE button 😩. But you can comment on posts and share them.

On the right sidebar, you'll find a list of links to my books and other goodies. 

For example, you can learn about FEED THE HOLY's awesome family of contributors

I will be thrilled if you follow FEED THE HOLY. Scroll down to the section labeled "Get New Posts by Email." It's free to sign up, and you will not receive excessive updates.

On the right sidebar, you can also view the labels (or themes) that contributors have written about, along with their names. 

If you'd like to support my volunteer work, please click on Buy Me a Coffee.  

On the right sidebar, you can even find a place to translate a post.

Finally, you can see the journal's total views, owing to the outstanding submissions! Scroll down to the bottom of the right sidebar to see the views.

Track your submissions on Duotrope


I hope that you read the journal and/or submit! Don't forget to comment and respond to comments. Authors, please share your good news on your social media and with family and friends. Help our community grow.

Because of the design of the new template/ theme,
it is best not to submit visual poetry or poems
with excessively long lines.
