I’m looking for some sort of publishing option that isn’t going to cost me a ton of money.
I have a children’s poem anthology. I have been told publishers don’t want poetry for children. I think this is not right.
Please let me know if you have advice or ideas.
ANY LUCK WITH THE PUBLISHING?

Honestly, I didn’t do anything about anything yet. Life grabs you and it’s hard to do other things. Thanks for checking back.

For whatever reason, everyone I have spoken to said that poetry is of no interest to children anymore. What!?!?!? I loved Shel Silverstein and Dr. Seuss. I write Cat in the Hat Fan Fiction all the time. I just have to keep searching.

Don’t let them keep you from doing what you feel is right, maybe a destiny?👍🏻☺️
