I'm working on reading Kreyol, and am at the point where I can read the VOA news with little difficulty. Can you recommend a website with a more challenging level of text--something with equivalent to reading, say, Le Monde Diplomatique in French? Mesi!

Sosyete Koukouy or the Libreri Mapou bookstore (the Miami Branch at 305-757-9922) has a few magazines that are written completely in Creole.  The website for Sosyete Koukouy is published completely in Creole and has some great reading materials.  Here's a link: http://sosyetekoukouy.org/

REKA is an internet journal published completely in Creole.  The LEKTI part of this online journal has some  interesting reading pieces.  Here is the link: http://kreyol.org/lekti.html

Tanbou.com is published in three languages. Many of the articles are in Creole.  Here's the link: http://www.tanbou.com/

The Haitian Migrant Worker Outreach publishes a free yearly journal.  One English, one in Spanish and one in Creole.  You may contact Dory for a free copy of the Creole Journal at this link: http://haitianmigrantworkeroutreach.org/Journal_English.html

Educavision.com and Libreri Mapou both have hundreds of books written in Creole... Novels, short stories, non-fictions.... etc...
