What's up Wednesday

Hello Poetteers,

I finished CRESS. It is the best out of the series!

I found an old story idea and already outlined the idea for camp NaNoWriMo in April.

I have another little project going on: A year ago from March 5th it was the re-release of A TO Z POETRY!

I would love to do something to celebrate it. Just like we did with Her Olives, take a picture of yourself reading A to Z Poetry and submit it to me to be part of the celebratory collage through #FidaPoetry

If I could have it by March 13, that would be great.

Do you know what I want to know, what do you want to see on the blog?

Love, Fida

I would love to write a new story for Camp Nano, but I have 2 in progress! The timing is never right. Much luck to you with your new idea.

Good luck with Camp NaNo! I'm participating for the first time, but decided to go with final revisions of a short book instead of starting something super-long during A to Z, and so soon after hopefully finishing the longest single-volume book I've ever written.
I loved Cress, it's brilliant isn't it? :D

Best of luck with your Camp NaNo story!

Have a great week!

Yay for Camp Nano!
I loved Cress as well, better than Scarlet, IMO.
Have a great week!

I need to read CRESS and the other books in that series - they've been on my TBR-list for awhile. I've heard a lot of great reviews.

I'd like to read Cress. I only read book one.

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.
