From Jerry Hicks
: Throughout
every month, I get tons
and tons of emails from
writers and poets who are
doing awesome things on
their own websites, with
other arts organization,
with universities, schools,
and art centers. Lately,
I've begun to feel that
this valuable information
that comes to my email-box
is lost on those who would
appreciate it most -- our
Kota readers. So I'm starting
to incorporate more news
and announcements into the
Poetry Journal.
And the following from
Jerry Hicks is one that
I just had to pass on to
you. You know we do our
own "Self Publishing
Made Easy" class here
at KotaPress, but it seems
that writers are loathe
to get themselves published.
They just want to write,
not do the business of their
art. So I figure as many
supports and resources we
can provide to you to prompt
you to take the initiative
on the business of your
art, the better! Here's
one more resource for support:
From Jerry Hicks, Contributing
Editor at Poetix
"Getting published"
really differs from all
other marketing data because
once you get into and
start using the column,
it actually nudges you
into submitting. All the
information, particularly
the morgue in Triage,
is extremely current and
topical. California offers
a huge market to authors
on all rungs of the professional
ladder.
