Submit to a magazine
There are tons of magazines out there that accept poetry, articles, and/or other written works. The
key to this step, is to do it. And, do it more than once. If you think
about sales and marketing, you would recall that if you sent out about 1000 pieces
of promotion, you get a return rate of 2 - 11%. Think about this in terms
of your poetry. If you send to 3 magazines, your chances of getting published are
quite slim.
Lucky for you, Poetry Canada magazine accepts work any time, all the time,
from anyone. So if you haven't sent your work there yet, then it is
time to do so. Guidelines
Technically, once you do this, you have satisfied the lesson. But wait - you
want to get published right?? So now it is time to dig, research, put your
list together, and really increase your chances at getting your work to
a magazine, and published.
