The Quiet Muse and a Party

Hello Poetteers,

I'm a day late to the Muse Party but I thought I should still come. You can find the other guests here!

1. Who is your muse (or character)? Tell us a little bit about him/her and why you brought them.

My muse is love. Lately it has been between relationships with people, nature and oneself.

2. What are you guys wearing? Dressing up or keeping it casual?

Right now we are keeping it casual I have on a beanie, kimono and jeans. My muse's is in a vest and jeans.

3. It’s a potluck! Did you bring something yummy!

We pitched in and baked brownies together for all of you, enjoy!

4. Open bar! What are you both drinking (booze or otherwise)?

Neither one of us are allowed to drink. My muse has the usual cherry coke and I have a raspberry lemonade.

5. Wallflowers or social butterflies?

I'm a wallflower. My muse is in between. It tries to get me to be a social butterfly.

6. What song(s) will you and your muse sing for karaoke?

Good question! Maybe 'See You Again'. My muse has been listening to it and got it stuck in my head.

7. What’s your favorite party game?

Scrabble!

8. Which one of you is more likely to end up dancing on a table top?

My muse. It likes to embarrass me and take me out of my comfort zone.

9. Has your muse been a good date and would you ever hang out with them again?

I think yes. It was a good partner.

Thank you for having us,

Fida

P.S. I have three poetry books: A to Z Poetry, Her Olives, and Hugs & Kisses for you to enjoy!

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.
