“Mythmaking is the first art. Written with a unity of vision largely forgotten by contemporary poetry, G.M. Palmer’s With Rough Gods grazes the foundations of Greek mythology, endowing gods and legends with a numinous humanity often unseen in traditional compilations of lore. Complete with a glossary of its characters, With Rough Gods embodies our human experience as only mythology can.”
‘With Rough Gods’ is a short collection of sonnets by poet and ancient world enthusiast, George Michael Palmer. It is a look into the ancient world and it’s tales through the eyes of Gods and Heroes alike, exploring both the dark and light side of classic myths.
The opening poem, ‘Homer & Calliope,’ sets the stage for the literary feast that we’re about to devour, with arguably the most famous writer of poems that the world has ever seen, addressing the muse of his craft,...

Only six other producers were given three channels: Bedrocket Media, BermanBraun,Demand Media, Electus, IconicTV, and Maker Studios. Clevver repeatedly enjoys status as one of the Top 10 YouTube Patner Channels according to comScore, and generates over 60 million views a month across its current YouTube channels, which include ClevverTV, ClevverMovies, ClevverMusic and ClevverGames. “We are taking advantage of the YouTube initiative to broaden our audience reach with channels targeting new demographics for Clevver Media,” said Michael Palmer, Clevver Media's Co-Founder. Indeed, the first of Clevver's three new channels is ClevverTeVe, which brings the leading Hollywood headlines to a Latino audience completely in Spanish.

ClevverTV is one of those YouTube channels that when you’re not wearing your teenage girl hat, it’s possible to overlook. But at 547 million total views and 317,000 subscribers, the flagship of La-based Clevver Media is a force to be reckoned with. Its niche of teen entertainment news, movie previews and even celeb gossip has blossomed since its launch in 2008, vaulting the channel to #59 on YouTube’s Top 100 most subscribed channels. Today the network is launching their fourth dedicated YouTube channel, Clevver Music, adding to its sprawling sub-verticals of Clevver Movies and Clevver Games. Instead of using its main channel anchors Dana Ward and Josyln Davis, Clevver tapped two new hosts for the new Music channel, a mix of TV and music experience in Bridget Daly and former Virgin Records Music exec Brian Corsetti. “Our first Clevver Media property, ClevverTV has allowed us to build a substantial YouTube and teen...
