The second Vita Brevis anthology is officially out!
I can’t thank the community enough. Whether you’re a poet whose work is featured in the new collection, a Vita Brevis regular, or a reader, you’ll find something to love.
Day 3 Update: We Did it – You’re a #1 Bestseller

Today’s update is brief.
We did it. You all did it. Vita Brevis’ second poetry anthology, just like the first, became a #1 bestselling new release in the poetry anthology category. This is a big deal for a young publication, and all featured poets deserve every bit of the spotlight. This status might last a day, a week, or maybe even a month. No matter what, we did it.
This type of performance is what keeps Vita Brevis reading-fee free. Thanks for making poetry publication accessible to everyone, and thanks for keeping this little publication going.
This is the final update on this anthology. Great work everyone. This community never ceases to amaze me.
Your friend and editor,
Brian Geiger
