blog a poetry book and land a traditional publishing deal

Recently, I’ve received a lot of questions from poets who would like to blog books of poetry.

How to Blog Short Stories and Essays in 30 Days or Less

Collections of short stories and essays make great fodder for blogged books. Why? Because they are…well…short. Seems obvious. A short story does not run the length of a novel.

Most of the books I edit or coach people to write fall into the prescriptive nonfiction category. This means they offer guidance or direction on a particular topic. They might provide 10 steps for better sex, or 8 ways to better parenting or a guide to getting published, for example. The authors might be experts—or […]
