DON’T LET ANYONE

TELL YOU THAT YOU CAN’T

SELL YOUR POETRY!

I’m not saying it is easy so if you are
looking for a
“get rich quick scheme”
then you’ve come to the wrong place!

Having said that, selling your

poetry isn’t as impossible as a

lot of Doubting Thomas’

would have us think!

As long as you are prepared to work at your craft
and study the openings

available then there is no reason why you
can’t make at least a little money

from your poetry and there are plenty of poets

who have done far more than that!

The secret is to have an extensive

listing of markets at your finger

tips that will

PAY FOR YOUR POETRY!

and there are far more of these

than you might think!

Many small press and literary magazines pay

for poetry as do websites and

greeting card publishers.

Unfortunately many do not so if

you are not careful you can fritter away hours

of productive writing time studying the

guidelines of publications that subsequently

prove to be non-paying markets.

Fortunately, there is another way!

Poetry For Profit

markets that are known to

PAY FOR POETRY!

These are NOT competitions, but
bona-fide

small press magazines, websites and

greeting card publishers.

INTO THE 100s!

kind or publication copies either!

All contact details are listed, including editor’s name, address,
