3 Tips to Organizing Your Task List

Hello Poetteers,

My life feels better when I'm organized and I see things organized. The first step to getting there is tackling your task list.

1. Have a brain bump session to write down all the ideas you have.

2. Pick the tasks and projects you want done in the near future and leave the rest for a different time. Also, add deadlines.

3. Every night spend some time making your to do list for the next day. Your mind won't be buzzing with thoughts and you'll sleep better. With a good night's sleep you will be able to accomplish more and better.

4. Color code your tasks by category.

5. Have the bigger tasks on top of your list.

Journaling has helped me find my way to organization. Get a free ebook of journaling prompts when you sign up for my newsletter.

Stay inspired,

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.

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. Glass Poetry Press
