[Important] WRITERS CLUB POETRY BOOK - TO BE PUBLISHED

Post by 017350 on Thu May 08, 2008 1:04 pm

I'm looking into publishing a book of poems. You see, it's very hard to run a forum using only free softwares. And since I'm not even a teenager yet, I can't afford anything with my own money. So I need a way to get some. This book will help raise the money to ensure the quality and continuation of this forum. One day, I might even be able to do something like this.

But I'm only average at poetry. So, I need you guys to supply the poems for me. I know what you're thinking: "I could do that, but what's in it for me?" Well honestly not much. But I'm going to try to make this offer sound as good as I can:

+3 points added to your point count per poem that gets chosen.

I'll give you credit for your poem. I'll use your real name or your username, whichever you prefer.

Under your name, I'll put a link to your website or profile page... or both.

I'll give you the "Contributers" rank, where you get a badge to wear proudly about the forum.

Not much, I know, but it's all I can offer. All funds will go straight towards improving the Writers Club Forum. I will also post a link to the Writers Club Forum in the front, back, and back cover of the book (if possible). I will also dedicate the book to you all for helping me with it. I will dedicate it to everyone on the forum whether or not you helped with it.

To help, just sign your name here, and I will browse through your poems, and select the best ones.

The rules? No FanFiction poems, and no poems that you wouldn't want a child to see.

I think that covers it. Thanks in advance to everyone who helps!

Do you have a publisher ready? Or are you going to publish it yourself?
I was just wondering what your plan was. For curiosity's sake. Very Happy
I'd be willing to contribute poems, but I'm not sure whether or not mine are good enough.

Well, I've looked into Cafe' Press, but I'm looking into other options, because you don't get much traffic on there.

I'll look at your poems and see. But they're probably good. All of your poems are.

Thanks for helping!

Not cafe press. Make it a sort of a big poetry book and really get it published. I know a family member who knows people who can get it published.

Methuselah- Of course! That's great! Let me add that one to the list.

BlackOpal- I really like your contest poem. I forget what it was called, but I think it's good.

harrygz- I know. I told you that I would try a bigger publisher if I could. But I'll only resort to that if there's no other good option.

I would love to help out. YOu can use my poetry! Im not sure what name I should use though because people might think Im from Bolivia if I use the name OliviaofBolivia, and my parents don't necessarily know Im a registered user on these sites. Ill get back to you on that one....
Do not cry when I am gone
To make me feel that I am loved
You'll see me just beyond the dawn
Or maybe look above
Do not cry on my behalf
Instead stand up, yes, get up and laugh
I wouldn't even care
So remember me but do not cry
I am not even there
