The Ledger is inviting local voices to be part of a special community feature celebrating life in Cochran and Bleckley County.
Are you a poet and your friends and family don’t even know it? We’d love to hear from you.
We are currently accepting original poems that reflect:
• Small-town life
• Life in Cochran or Bleckley County
• Faith, community, family, or everyday moments
Submissions should be:
• 400 words or less
• Original and unpublished
• Positive, uplifting, or reflective in tone
Please include:
• Your name
• The Bleckley County community you are from
• Age
• (Optional) Headshot
Email submissions to: editor@thecbledger.com
📌 Submissions are open to Bleckley County residents only.
The top 10 poems will be selected for publication on The Ledger.
You never know—your words might be exactly what someone in our community needs to read.
Deadline for poems to be submitted April 30 by 5 p.m.
