The Invisible Voice

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined."--Henry David Thoreau

Due to the lack of resources, I am going to postpone my poetry book "Love Vs. Anti-Love". However, if I can figure out a way to develop a book cover or find someone that can, I will publish my latest set of poetry that I am currently calling "The Invisible Voice". It's a metaphorical title symbolizing the first publishing from an author.

I'm planning on submitting a couple of transcripts to a couple of local newspapers and maybe ask a professor to read over some of the poems so I can gather some quotes and use them as advertising. If I gather enough reviews, I might submit a copy to the local PBS station to gather some more publicity. Also, gathering quotes is good b/c if they do specify that your poems are not that great, then you won't have to spend $34.99 on listing your work on Amazon.com.

I have a couple of examples of my work on my website and I will update the site to include the new poetry book. I have received many favorable comments from classes and I do have a couple of connections in the literary world. I don't believe that it will receive a lot of press, but it's worth a try right? After all, how many famous poets and authors do you know of that have never tried and have ended up with published works before they died?

I have finally made it over another wall of writer's block. I am slowly approaching the huge climax. Now, if I can just find some time...
