A to Z: H is for Hunt... and an Award


Here is a poem inspired by poetic asides:

Hunt for Decisions

At any age
you'll have things to go after
and things coming to you
you have to choose
to do what is right for you
or right for others
(maybe wrong for you).


If you're still here, yesterday D. VonThaer awarded me with an award. I'm just going to make this simple and only answer the 11 questions. If you look around my blog you'll quickly find 11 facts about me. I'll only tag a few people: Zara, Megan, Sania, Sarah.

1. Where would you like to travel? Everywhere! But right now I just want to go back to Malaysia.
2. If you were a superhero what would your superpower be? I kind of have the superpower of a psychic.
3. What was your first car? N/A. But I could say Honda, since I'm practicing in one.
4. Who is your favorite author? I have no idea, I'm a bookworm!
5. Do you prefer cold weather or warm weather? In between.
6. When was the last time you built a snowman? Back in middle school.
7. Who is your favorite actor or actress? I don't have one.
8. At what age did you start writing or drawing? I remember writing a poem when I was a toddler, but didn't seriously start until 7th grade.
9. What do you enjoy most about your art? Everything, I get to express who I am.
10. Who would you like to see in concert? I have no idea.
11. Do you know anyone you would take a bullet for? My family.

Thank you Fida. I'm still working on my "I" post. In need of some inspiration.
Lovely poem once again.
What are you doing for "I"?

I don't know what I'm doing for I. For fun, I might do my last name. And thanks, Sania!

Great poem. It's so true that you have to hunt after what's right for you.
Sometimes, I just let the course of life meet me. I hunted for myself for years. When I stopped hunting, what I've searched for found me. :-)

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.

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 mo...
