Publishing Your Poetry
A Poet's Guide To Submitting Poems For Publication
​

There is an old saying that an artist of any kind has to create. And while we will all continue to write even just for our own peace of mind, having other people read our work on occasion is nice too. So many poets keep their poems hidden in a closet, or a dresser drawer and never share them with the world. Many more want to but don't know how to get started. This resource put together by the publishers of Local Gems Press is the perfect starting tool on that path.
