I don't need to see myself in print but I do have to say that I have just a few people on here that I would pay for their work.

same, i'd certainly buy it either way. but there are a few here that should get more publicity, and i think a publisher would recognize that. if they don't they're....MMMMM!

I'd buy it though I would hope the whole thing wasn't whining, suicidal, or shock effect poems.

wel speakn as sum1 who has ben published, especially n dis economic state of da world, it is very difficult 2 sell books of poetry unless u hav a big name 2 begin wit....i had 1 poem puslished as part of a collection & i hav an entire book of my work published as wel....its actually harda dan u think but it is also a fairly easy process 2 get started....but its fairly costly 2.....

Hmmm it all depends, and its going to fricking tricky. Without dropping names, they are writers on here who the publishers would love, then there's the other 97% (joking, maybe). Maybe there could be two copies. I think it's going to be fricking tricky still. The whole thing would need to gel really well, and I don't think poetry diluted in teenage drama would carry off much of a theme. Hmmmmm... I vote for the second option.
