Poetry Book Theme Ideas

Hello Poetteers,

There are several ways to find themes for your poetry book. Read your old poems. Pay attention to what books inspire you. Research what’s trending right now. You can look up bestselling book lists on Amazon and other book retailers. Pick what stands out and captures your heart.

Once you have an idea: group the similar themes together, compile all the poems and order them in a way that tells a story. Write any new poems to fill the gaps. Then send it off to editing. Message me if you’re ready to work with me to edit your poetry.

The poetry book theme and topics can be used as categories and keywords when publishing it on distribution sites like Smashwords.

Stay inspired,

Fida

I have no money or talent to showcase my writing. After IndieReCon I felt a better, yet once the high went away, I find it's only a little bit better. I need a team, I need help. I call for help, but I don't get replies. That's another insecurity, I don't think I have any fans. My blog is becoming dead and I keep thinking of deactivating my twitter. The only reason I stay is for the knowledge. And the worse insecurity, dare I say it. All the above add to me... wanting to quit writing. I have little motivation and that motivation is to show my Muslim community you don't have to be a doctor or lawyer or teacher to be...

Hello readers, What I'm Reading CROWN OF MIDNIGHT! The first book was already great but this second book kicked it up a notch with the OMG! moments.
