Poetry people! Anybody reading this -

I am starting the process to self publish again hopefully within the next several months. This will be a book of all my poems about friendship, from when I started at about 15, to my present age of 19. I have about 70 poems with 16,421 words total at the moment. Eighteen of them have been previously published in my other two books, but because I want to do a full friendship poetry compilation, they will be republished.

Would you consider reading a few poems (*even just one or two*), and giving me your opinion? (Harsh critique is welcome - I'm well aware I have a lot to learn.) I'm especially looking for any confusing vagueness, grammar errors and punctuation mistakes, as well as any comments on meter, flow, and word choices. Every extra set of eyes is a help, no matter how much you actually have time to read.

Anyone who helps will be given extra entries to the giveaways I will be doing to promote my book. (Signed books by me, clay critters, etc.)

And you'll have my forever gratitude, but yeah, that's a given....

If you would be interested in helping me out, please let me know. :)

I'm willing. I don't know how much time I can give you (I'm taking a technical writing class that's essentially one semester-long 25-to-30-page paper, I have my own poetry collection that I'm working on in hopes of publishing this winter, and I'm months if not more than a year behind on my page-by-page critique for another friend ...), and as I think I've mentioned before poetry critique is one of the tasks that often triggers my "where to begin?" anxiety, but I'm willing and in fact more than willing to try.

Thank you, Kingjon. :D I understand about being busy, hah, believe you me. ;) Any little help though, would be great, even if ya just do so for a couple poems. *Messages you as well*

I'd love to, Ophelia. I'll probably go through the poems and get as many done before the deadline as I can, if that's all right. (Maybe all of them. :D)
