JuNoWriMo Blog Hop

Hello Poetteers,

In a month it will be JuNoWriMo!

"For those of you who are unfamiliar with JuNoWriMo, it’s a month long writing adventure in the style of NaNoWriMo, complete with word sprints and plenty of other writers to cheer you on. The goal is to write 50,000 in one month (1,667 words a day). You can write whatever you want. Fiction, non-fiction, the final 50k to something you started five years ago. Anything. We’d love to have you write with us!"

I will be working on the same story I started to write during camp nano back in April. The story I'm working on is about a Muslim girl balancing her faith in her love for soccer and fashion design.

Yet that might change into a new story with similar themes. We'll see where the months and planning takes me.

Love, Fida

If you publish that book I will buy it immediately because you're talking about a much more fictional side of me, I'm the Muslim girl who loves soccer and fashion design!!! :P okaaaay enough craziness, I wish you all the luck in finishing your book, it sounds amazing :)

This makes me more excited to write it! Thank you!
Welcome again to JuNoWriMo, Fifi. Hopefully I'll see you during sprints again this year.

Your book sounds like a good story for young girls, no matter what their faith. It's hard to be a teenager in the world... any teenager.

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. In the thirteenth century, the Holy Roman Church has ordered the Knights Templar to exterminate the Passionate, her bloodline.

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...
