Love-a-Thon: Mix and Match

Hello Poetteers,

I love reading and writing stories. This challenge is to combine that with a non-bookish passion of ours. My recent passion is calligraphy. I'll be sharing books with typography that drew me in.

It shows the expansive-ness of what the word means and what the story is.
I love the simplistic style and the different sized lettering. It puts the model in the center. It's all pointing towards her. 
It is simplistic but puts emphasis on the point of the story. 
It is enchanting like the story itself.
I love that the title is able to make a shape out of itself.
This is another title where emphasis is put on the word that seems to be the theme of the story. 
I just love this one. It's simple, big and bright.
It stands out from the background. It goes with the story. 
The arrows pointing to the title is what adds to the cover. It will still look good without them but it just shows the goodness. If that even makes sense. 

With that, what books have typography that stood out to you?

Love, Fida

How To Say I Love You Out Loud is definitely the prettiest in the bunch, at least for me.

TYPOGRAPHY IS EVERYTHING TO ME, AND YOU PICKED OUT GORGEOUS ONES.

I really love Everything Leads To You. Can you believe that was done by an intern? TALENT. I LOVEEEE A Thousand Nights's typography. Just the way it's wrapped around and the other words surrounding it, beautiful.

Upcoming Poetry Reads of 2021, Part 2

Hello Poetteers,  I'm sharing more poetry books I discovered and am excited to read! March Coming Home to Her By Emily Juniper It is a celebration of being human. It is a coming out journey, an exploration of sexuality, femininity, loving, and being loved. How to Bloom By Tatyana White Jenkins A collection of poems about the enthralling, complex, grueling, and beautiful journey of growth. April The Gravity Inside Us By Chloe Frayne  An ode to whatever it is we carry that pulls us in and out of place, and speaks so insistently of fate. The Medicine That Burns by Molly S Hillery It is a raw declaration on what a life of trauma can look like after the dust settles and the poems have happy endings. It is an unflinching narrative on how hurt is cyclical, how recovery must be redefined repeatedly, and how shame can poison us in the worst ways. I See How You've Kept Me by Aisha Adams A debut poetry book that takes you through a journey of brokenness to reach complete healing. May The

Publishers That Publish Poetry Books

Hello Poetteers, As I was doing my own research for poetry publishers this question popped up on my feed: Does anyone know any publishers that publish poetry books? Later on, while hosting #PoetteerChat I asked what everyone’s plan is for a year from now. Most of you said to be published. I promised a list of publishers, so here’s the top 7 I found. Along with the publisher, I will mention the poets they represent. I want to work with someone I can trust. Seeing familiar names makes them more trustable in my opinion. Andrew McMeel - has published Amanda Lovelace, Lang Leav, Rupi Kaur and more.  Dancing Girl Press - has published our very own Amanda N. Butler.  Bottlecap Press - has published Courtney LeBlanc  Button Poetry - has published Olivia Gatwood, Sierra DeMulder and more.  Two Sylvias Press - has published Jeannine Hall Gailey, Kelli Russell Agodon, Martha Silano and more.  Write Bloody - has published Sarah Kay, Andrea Gibson and more.
