I wish you the very best with all of your writing and I enjoy getting the update on how your book is going. You mentioned a town by the name of Moberly. Does that happen to be Moberly Missouri just wondering. Patricia.

Hi Barbara
That's great that you have all this fame. I have no idea how to go about it and publishers always want more than one poem. They want a whole manuscript, but I sort of want to create one before I die.
But I don't expect you to show me. I hope your hometown lets you have a book signing. And sell some books. You should be fairly famous in your hometown.
Thank you for sharing

I know about a publisher who specializes in books of poetry, if you have enough for a book.
-
I have enough but don't I have to format them into pages?
-
That I have no clue on. A publisher would need to answer. I don't do poems. Maybe put it out there as a question here, somebody might know.

How awesome, Barbara! You are getting out there and meeting and greeting people who enjoy your writing. That's wonderful. but I do agree, your publisher should be making sure your face is well know everywhere. I wish you the best of luck!
Smiles and hugs, Carol

It's tough out there for any author. The economy seems to be on the brink with Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas coming. What a wonderfully written piece. Best of luck with your writing! Have a great day, and God bless.

Thank you for the support. So many people do kindle books, but on Amazon, they often sell them for free.

When I read your post, the word, "brag" never crossed my mind. Though we never met, I know you are not that type of an individual.
I need to ingrain the last sentence in my mind,
Please be brave enough to put your work out there.
I do need to consider and follow through with that, once I get my Mango & Bert stories up to par.
Great post.
John
