Have you ever earned money for writing poetry? Lots of people write and earn for articles or reviews, how about poetry? Where and how/how much do you earn for poetry?

Well maybe u can find some greeting cards companies that can hire u . Or maybe u can write lots poems and later compile them into one book and publish the book and u earn money from it. Im looking for some ways too on how to earn from the poems that i already made.

Lulu.com it's a place to publish free. I've not tried it and lots of details, I've already forgotten but I know everything is there and you make the decision, from illustration,binding,cover,ebook and of course price.

As far I've found triond.com for free places, blogit.com for paying places. You make 50 cents per month if you just post poetry because poetry doesn't go to into their more high paying sub sites like society.
