Our Empty Cities now available!
A few weeks ago, I offered something new to my tumblr followers. If they reblogged the post, I would write a short poem based on their username. I figured I'd wind up writing ten or so poems and it'd be fun for everyone.
I wrote 150 poems in three days. Looking at this long trail of posts, I knew I couldn't leave them to get lost in the short memory of tumblr. I'd thought about self-publishing before, but never with any seriousness. I started looking into it more on a whim than anything else.
Then I remembered another collection of poems I'd written for my weekly writing group. It had been sent to a few contests without much success. The themes weren't dissimilar from the tumblr poems and adding them in would make it a far more reasonable book length.
Two weeks later and I'm holding Our Empty Cities in my hands! Talk about instant gratification. Hopefully KDP will have the ebook out soon. Our Empty Cities
