The Poetry Society of Tennessee - Northeast Tennessee chapter represents a group of authors dedicated to excellence in poetry writing. We strive continually to perfect our craft and welcome all those who share our desire to develop as poets.

The local PST-NE chapter extends membership into the northeast corner of our state (and across our border since Tennessee residency is not a membership requirement). PST- NE Membership Membership includes PST (Memphis) on the state level and NFSPS on the National level. Membership entitles you to attend the PST-NE poetry readings on the 2nd Saturday of the month and any locally sponsored activities and events, as well as state and national activities. Membership publications include the NFSPS quarterly newsletter Strophes,and PST's bimonthly Tennessee Voices Bulletin. All this for annual dues of $25! (Only $10 for students!) PST (Memphis) hosts an annual Mid-South Poetry Festival in October to announce contest winners. The NFSPS Convention is held in June annually hosted in a member state.
