And a good question it is, so I am going to place this in its proper forum...which would be the Q&A forum in Discussion.  Look for some answers there!

Thanx....too bad poetry isn't as popular as sports or we would all be able to publish books easily

i actually find poetry to bee too popular.  even in fad-proportions at times.

:: shrugs ::

just keep at it.  the more you're published, the better known you'll become.

if you wish to do it on your own [unsolicited and without an agent], it would help if you have multiple publishings to back you up.

local publishers are always a first stop.  but make sure you're definitely ready.  they're only interested in serious applicants.

:: shrugs ::  there's so much more, but i'm just so damned tired right now.

i'm so bitterly disappointed.  betty, i think it's time you leave now.
