Oh I can’t believe this! (I’m still jumping about like a loon!) I got a letter this morning from this website I post my poetry on (Poetry.com). They want to publish my poem ‘Forsaken Tears’ in their new book ‘Eternal Portraits’. I get a whole page dedicated to my poem! And all my rights are reserved the poem is copyrighted under my name and I don’t have to pay a thing! They wrote me a really nice letter complimenting me and my poem and saying I should be proud. I still can’t believe it! I have to read through my poem on the sheet and correct any mistakes and then send it back but wow! I never thought this could happen! I’m bloody getting published a whole page for me wooooo! I entered the poem in a contest as well never once thinking anything would come of it now I’m a semi finalist as well as getting published. Karma finally paying off yay! Sorry about the insane ramblings I’m just so happy.

That's totally OMG! OMG! Congratulations!!! This is fantastic! Could you send me a link in a pm? I had problems locating your poem on poetry.com (meaning I never found it) and would love to read it. Thanks.

That's cool. I did the same thing about four years ago now, but I never ordered a copy of the poetry book. I just remember getting a semifinalist letter or something about getting it published in the book, but I don't think I ever took the time to do anything about it. Do you plan on getting a copy of the book? It would probably be something cool to have... you know, you're work in print!
