Wrote ten poems last night

I went to bed last night and all of a sudden I had this idea for a poem. Actually, a few lines came to me. I took out my iPhone, opened the Notes app, and started writing. After I finished writing the poem another one came to me. And after that another... Before I knew it, I had ten poems written. I wanted to keep on writing but I stopped. I was doing it in the dark, since hubby was sleeping, and my eyes were tired. I probably could've written more poems if I didn't stop. Oh well. Ten is a great number in itself. I will need to do some edits but they are gonna go into my new book Seasonal Memories that I've been working on.

They haven't been going anywhere. But can't expect them to happen when not really doing any promotion/marketing.

@LindaOHio If that price included illustrations, cover, lots of marketing campaigns perhaps but I'd still not wanna spend that much to publish a book. The books the publish, are they print-on-demand or how does that work?

@lovebuglena I wonder for that $5,000 if Atmosphere Press does any of that. Probably not.

That's awesome.Most of my writing ideas come in the shower or while I am cleaning dishesMany just evaporate before I could pen them down. Good that you wrote them.

It is best to write the ideas down right when they come to you or you may forget them. I actually had that happen to me but the ideas came to in the shower and there was no way that I could write them down. If an idea for a lyric comes to me in the shower (like exact lines) I just keep repeating them till I get out and can jot them down.

That's a lot of writing, and on such a tiny screen, too.

I will have to look them over to make sure autocorrect didn't change any words.
