Prom Queens: Celebrating Prom Poems & Stories by Queens Writers

Sharing stories about going or not going to prom allows us to find commonalities within each other's unique cultures and identities. This anthology aims to help people, including future prom-goers, celebrate each other's prom stories instead of feeling pressured to live up to what pop culture has taught us prom is supposed to look like.

What better place to give voice to a diverse range of prom stories than The World's Borough

Prom is short for promenade, a French word meaning "a leisurely walk." This slow walk also refers to the parade of guests, often in pairs, which acts as an opening ceremony for a cotillion or debutante ball. The Prom Queens anthology is arranged as a poetry-and-prose promenade of paired-up contributors. Each promenade pair is introduced by an illustration capturing their combined spirit by Queens artist and contributor A King McCarty.
