God, anna; you're the female equivalent of Danny ( whose was grueling to edit, but so worth it )—editing would have to be very, VERY meticulous on yours to retain the original style.  I think the book would be a great success. I would definitely purchase one, as I loved your first one.  I'd be willing to help ( if at all possible ) per poem along the process; walk with you along the way.  Sorry can no offer sex, but will take an autographed copy.

while i don’t think i can compare to Danny in any way, i do think you would be a fantastic editor - once I’ve got a concept copy I’ll send it your way for your thoughts x

I'm about to sit down this week with some uninterrupted time to read it through; however, I've been nibbling and love it so far.

Will it have any of Your Drawings included?  

As a terminal romantic
i am interested in perusing.  i only own 2 books by non-professional poets and purchased a Spoken Word CD a couple of years ago done by my favorite poet, Agnes Török.

im considering illlustrations, yes, but I’m far more of a sculptural/ immersive installation type of artist... i may include some photographs. i have a series of plasticine men in a dollhouse that might fit quite well, but again I would like to make it fresh

edit : in conclusion I’m not sure

further edit: if ahaviti is willing, I think the dollhouse pictures would fit better with a reprint of anaerobic inhale, which i would like to do actually

While i love the written word, i appreciate found Beauty in art be they by one's own hand or the perception (deception) of one's own eyes  

Looking forward to Your works

I think you're probably right.  Don't know if you purchased Danny's book, but we illustrated some of the pages in it.

Well if Danny and Terry are among those three they will be eternally grateful.  Damn good books too!

So shoot me the images via email and let me have a looksie next to your book.

You must surprise the reader because this is a popular topic. I wrote my book https://freebooksummary.com/category/city-of-the-beasts under the impression of the City of Beasts. We must be able to combine different eras and different sides of love. It sings a beacon or a repeater of reality. I advise you to read this book for lovers of natural lyrics.

good stuff, Lady

my first thoughts were: you're more than able to write love poems. you dont need to draft in anyone to edit your stuff, you're doing yourself a disservice and problay your readers for even thinking about thinking about it


certainly, if you're of the mind post poem by poem here and garner opinions and such, there's already some very able minds on this thread

can maybe help you with what order to put the poems in, and in fairness you could probably ask the image group to come up with a couple of covers or something, not that I'm volunteering them

I've been half thinking about putting something together myself so I'll follow you with some interest.  best of luck to you

I've already read and edited ( what tiny amount needed editing ). It's fabulous; it's anna.
