The BEST "how to" book for beginners.
4 Dec 1999
By A Customer
- Published on Amazon.com
This book is by far the best, most sympathetic, encouraging and stimulating book for the beginning poet that I have yet come across. It, and its companion volume - "A Practical Poetry Course" take the reader step by step through the various stages of learning to write good poetry. She keeps the technical details simple and accessible, and manages to keep an overall feeling of enjoyment and pleasure in the task at hand.
I personally owe this book and this author a huge debt of gratitude. I can think of no better gift for the person who likes writing poetry and is beginning to feel that maybe they should/could take it further, if only they knew how ...

good guide
4 May 2003
By I X Key
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This great guide is very useful & informative for learning about publishing. Cursively written, too, with pertinent quotes at the beginning of each chapter. I even laughed out loud a number of times reading this book, because it's just so fun to read! I have one small complaint, which can be expected of any printed book about the internet. The internet-publishing chapter of this book I think is way out of date. My only other complaint is more about what I didn't know about the book before reading it than the book itself. It's especially about British publishing, which means that a lot of information in it is directly relevant to poets in England an, for me as an American, is only indirectly useful.
I hope this review has been helpful to you.

OK, so you have written your poems - how do you go about publishing them? Try the hard way - knock on many doors and waste a lot of postage stamps and telephone calls.
Or read this guide and you will save a lot of headaches - and you will start on the right track to getting published.
