On publishing poetry

It may seem self-indulgent in the extreme to produce a book of one’s own poetry. Before reaching the stage when it feels the time is right to publish a collection of poems, however, a writer needs to embark upon quite a journey. There will be times when loss of confidence will destroy the creative spark, sometimes for months or years at a time. There will also be times when a competition win, a positive critique from another poet or publication in an anthology of good poetry is all that is needed to goad the flagging writer into action again.

For me, the right time to produce a collection of my poetry is now. I have weathered sufficient highs and lows along my writing journey to feel I need procrastinate no longer.

Hi

Not sure what you mean about the template. I used the blog option from the Weebly site creation website. Just included it as a page on my site. The layout is one of the free ones provided by Weebly.

Hope this helps.
