b) Have published twenty or more different poems or pages of poetry in five or more literary journals, anthologies, or publications between January 1, 2005, and March 1, 2012.

The Literature Fellowship Program is essential to the National Endowment of the Arts because it is very much in keeping with their overall agency mission and it also helps them support writers who have the potential to achieve artistic excellence but are lacking in funds and finances.
