Coming soon: "Feeling is First", the first allpoetry book project!

I'm very proud to announce that our first book project has gone to the presses! It should be available in Amazon.com and by special order through a local bookstore fairly soon.

This is a stellar collection of the best poetry AP has to offer, and I hope you're looking forward to getting your hands on it as much as I am! Aah, a good chair, a cup of coffee, and a great book of poetry!


Congratulations to the 123 poets involved:

Many thank are due to Janice Pickett for her devotion to this project and her editing on a previous version of this book.

The styles range from modern to more classical, including some humor, and yes even a few rhymes.

A few of the more modern styled poems can be seen in a list I made here http://allpoetry.com/list/3200-Great-poems-in-the-allpoetry-book-project

I'm so excited!

    this is the first I have heard

    how were these people selected? This is the first I have heard of a book. I have been published with two other magazine while another fan here known as Jaden that selected the writers in the magazinge. I don't understand why you did not publish and anounce it to all for submission.

    thanks for your time

    Can you access it via all amazon websites or just .com? I'm asking because I know I have a gift certificate being sent to .co.uk and I have no ready cash and am interested in buying the book. Congrats by the way

    Congrats to the poets included in the book! And best luck with the book sales.

    Not exactly a title that would draw me in though ..just as an FYI. But I thought I read somewhere it was a poem book for teens? So that makes a bit more sense.

    Good luck with publishing!

    Good to come back and read this

    I am so glad this is finally completed and that all is well.
    I appreciate the thanks but I must include dear Shari Lengal who worked really hard alongside me in the beginning of the project and Linda Hancock who jumped in boots and all near the end whilst Shari was away. They both deserve an accolade. Well done Team. THANK YOU.

    A question...

    Will the authors of the poems share in the revenue generated by the book sales?
