VoicesNet Introduction

Hi, I'm Jeff Humphrey, the Founder and Contest Director of The Voices Network located at VoicesNet.com and VoicesNet.org on the Net.

We started our website in January of 2002 and have grown substantially since that time. We have been working very hard to be one of the best and most credible writers and poetry sites on the Internet.

We have a talented and quickly growing community of writers here at VoicesNet. We have over 2000 Forum members and over 14,000 Visions Literary Journal subscribers. Currently, we receive thousands of poems each month for our VoicesNet contests.

Our website traffic keeps booming too. We have had as many as 3500 visitors in one day and have served up as many as 28,000 page views also in one day.

Come and join us and have some fun. We extend this special invitation for you to enter our poetry contests, visit our writers forum, self publish your book here, get lost in our new one of a kind Poems Database, subscribe to our Visions Literary Journal, try out our New Information Portal, or try out many other features that are available here at VoicesNet.

In early 2003, we mailed out our first VoicesNet Anthology International Poetry Publication book to customers from around the world. Since then we have published 6 quarterly contest book series and are now on our 8th contest cycle.

We have received poem submissions in our writing competitions from more than 100 Countries:
