Press Release Body =
A Youth Poetry Anthology

Bringing Today's Young Poetic Voices Together

I would like to thank all of the exceptional, young poets that made the first volume
of Make Some Noise! a great success. Without you, Make Some Noise! would not exist.

Make Some Noise! III is an opportunity for young people to tell the world what's on
their minds by expressing themselves through poetry. It will also give them the
experience to have their work published in a 130 page anthology.

The goal for Make Some Noise! is to inspire a hope in young people that will move
them beyond their own doubts and the doubts of others and into the cultivation of
their writing talents. No matter if they are a writer with God-given talent or a
writer that struggles with expression, the Make Some Noise! collection brings
together a wide range of creative poetry written by today's youth. It is a stepping
stone to help get young people closer to their dreams while giving them the
opportunity to contribute-to make a difference in the life of someone else by
touching them with their words of inspiration.

The Young Poets Award
Make Some Noise! III will be rewarding one poet "The Young Poets Award,"to be chosen
by our panel members. This award will be granted to the selected poet whose poem
demonstrates the highest level of creativity and passion for the art of poetry.

The selected poet for this award will have their poem featured on the back cover of
the anthology. In addition, the poet will receive a Young Poets Award certificate,
an elegant, wooden pen with their name engraved on it, and a $200 savings bond will
also be rewarded.

Jessica Moyer, "My Child of Paradise."
