Monday Blessings #13: An Award

Salaam,
today is not a weekly edition because I haven't done it for a month. So as you can guess, this is an exclusive - monthly edition:

Y I went to my first myna camp. Y I finished my first A to Z Challege. Y I entered my second big contest and lost, but made friends. Y I learned to hold down my emotions a whole day after hearing bad news, more than one and death. Y God sent a sign that life is short and that we should take care of ourselves. Y I finished my first semester of college! Y I went to my first Christian wedding. Y I loved seeing the hoosier national forest Y I entered into my third big contest.

Also, I was given the Sunshine Award! Thank you, A Long!

What a happy post! What's a myna camp, Fida? And what did you think of the Christian wedding?

Book Tour: Timeless by Crystal Collier

Hello Poetteers,  Let's welcome Crystal Collier here today to share her brand new book! Title:  TIMELESS Series:  Maiden of Time, #3 Author:  Crystal Collier Pages:  253 Publication:  November 1, 2016 Publisher:  Raybourne Publishing ISBN:   9781629830056 TIME IS THE ENEMY. In 1771, Alexia had everything: the man of her dreams, reconciliation with her father, even a child on the way. But she was never meant to stay. It broke her heart, but Alexia heeded destiny and traveled five hundred years back to stop the Soulless from  becoming.

But none of her hard-won battles may matter if she dies in childbirth before completing her mission. Can Alexia escape her own cloc...

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 mo...
