I don't want to self publish. That says to me anyone with a dollar and a manuscript can see their work in print. I want an editor to justify my writing. I want to be told that my ideas are worth getting out there. I want my talent to be confirmed.
Yeah, me and about a million other writers out there.
So this explains why there is nothing going on here. I keep thinking about writing instead of actually DOING it. Of course, anything I post online usually will not be used in a book, something to do with "first rights" and "second rights" or something like that. So, the things I'm actually thinking about writing about cannot be posted here.
Guess you will have to wait for the book.

I did not know that. So do they "own" my poetry on this blog? How do they even know who I or you are?
They may not "own" your poetry, but if it has been published (even electronic media), it may be harder to sell in print, since it's already theoretically been seen. And they may not know exactly who you are but I'm sure anyone with intent can find out, or if it would come out later on a book contract would be voided.
