Its free - the site takes a cut of your profits. However there is a charge if you want it listed on Amazon or other sites.

Re: Rescued from Oblivion

You can self publish on Feed a Read.com. It's a straightforward process. I previously used Lulu.com but that's a bit of a faff.

Re: Rescued from Oblivion

Poet-e,
I‘ve corrected the typo. Duh. The book props open the door -  it’s a weighty volume as it’s got every poem I wrote in it.

T,
Thanks T and keep at it.

Cheers

Rescued from Oblivion

If you’re feeling a little bit low why not purchase my poems below? diverting and cheap with nothing too deep you carry them round as you go. When going by bus or by train you can read ‘em again and again just put up your feet on the opposite seat and ignore all the jerks who complain. By keeping th...

Too bad it’s not for you Dave but I suspect your sympathies lie with the woolly hatters.

Dissension Rebellion

They want to make us change our ways by blocking roads on protest days – their banners waved and placards thrust at those who earn a daily crust. ‘We’re doomed!’ they cry ‘the end is nigh. We want to save the world somehow and need a futile gesture NOW! A schoolgirl is our chosen one, she says the w...

Re: A Challenge - Let's See What We Can Create in Honor of Veteran's Day

I don't have anything new so this is an old one. Buried in France   One of a simpler, less cynical race that lad with the open ingenuous face set long ago in a bronze oval frame and only hushed reverence when speaking his name. On grandmother’s sideboard for seventy years the tall grinning youth wi...

The Lighterman’s Inn

Deep in the snug of the Lighterman’s Inn with a twist of tobacco and a ha’ porth of gin, sit Hatchet-faced Lizzy and Snaggle Tooth Nell harbouring stories they never can tell, whispering references dark and opaque - their mutual fate and wellbeing at stake. Secrets recalled with a wink or a nod to s...

Demos

  You made your decision that isn’t denied but it’s more democratic to let us decide. We promised I know but just let it go. You and you your kind don’t know your own mind - the rough common herd, you believed every word. But we want to stay and we want our own way. We do we as we please because we’...
