Brother, Sister, can you spare a few dollars?

Paypal registration is not required.

Virginia Heatter, P.O. Box 322, Nashua, NH 03061-0322.

Because we are an independent, online publication and do not carry advertising, we cannot afford to pay our contributors directly. Nonethless, we strongly feel that our poets, reviewers, and visual artists deserve our financial support. We are asking for very small donations of $2.00 to $3.00, which will be pooled to provide each of our current issue's contributors with an honorarium for their work. You may also choose to make a larger "one year" donation, which will be distributed in four equal parts over the course of a year. A list of donors will be posted online concurrent with the distribution of funds. You may also choose to donate anonymously, dedicate your donation to a friend or family member, or with a minimum donation of $20 list your organization or business as the donor.

All funds will be disbursed to contributors, but because we cannot predict the level of donor participation, payment is not guaranteed. Funds will be distributed according to the following schedule, less PayPal's fee of 2.9% + $.30 per online donation.

2.084 % per poem (@ 38 poems = 79.193%)
2.084 % per review (@ 6 reviews = 12.504 %)
4.152 % per visual artist (@ 2 artists = 8.304 %)
