NC Poet Laureate Kathryn Stripling Byer has featured the Dead Mule on her Poet Laureate site as a part of her celebration of National Poetry Month.

Read Kathryn’s poems in the Mule, when she was our featured poet laureate in 2007.

And just think, none of this would be possible, if Valerie MacEwan hadn’t started the Mule back in 1995 as a print magazine under a grant from the NC Arts Council before turning it into a web zine soon after. As Val says, “The Mule does not discriminate but good taste and superb quality supercede all other criteria.”

See even our NC Poet Laureate loves the Mule!
