Yesterday I got a call on the phone after being up all night editing and I hadn't had coffee yet! But I talked to them. Everyone has a story. This someone wanted to make a book for their brother as a birthday present. People call me on the phone. Talk to me at events, and everyone is writing a story, if not in words with their life. And what is better than a good story? It makes life worth living, it makes us laugh, it makes the road easier.
So I bet you to have a story to share.... We have more ways to share your work, our biannual anthologies, our digital magazines, our blog, and our podcast or radio show. January is usually our month but we need more work. So let's get ready for National Poetry Month with poetry, art, and short stories to share. Your voice is important. Write on! Check out these,
WHAT DO WE PUBLISH? We create dynamic, literary, and artistic paperback and digital ebook anthologies, one poetry and one short fiction. We emphasize fun, beauty, art, and artists in our books.
