2012 Poet's Market

A Guide For Poets

We spotlight the craft of poetry in our 2012 Poet’s Market book, available now at bookstores across the country and online. This valuable guide, which has been around for over 20 years, includes a wealth of information for poets of all types. “I returned to writing in 2006 and Poet’s Market was the first book I purchased,” says Jessie Carty, author of Paper House. “It guides everyone – from newbie to seasoned writer – on the path to publishing their poems.” The 2012 Poet’s Market book is a must-have for your bookshelf.

Edited by Robert Lee Brewer, a published poet and senior content editor for Writer’s Digest, the 2012 Poet’s Market includes guidelines for poets and writers regarding the changing landscape of social media and advice for writing in different types of poetic forms.

What you’ll find in the book is hundreds of detailed listings for poetry publications, publishers, and contests, along with current information such as submission preferences, what editors look for, who to contact and payment information.

But the book is more than a bunch of listings. It offers articles with valuable insight by top people within the industry and exclusive interviews with well-known poets, including Aaron Belz, author of Lovely, Raspberry. “I’ve been using Poet’s Market since I was in college more than 20 years ago. Since then, I’ve published hundreds of poems and two books,” he says.

Along with the book, you’ll be able to watch to a free webinar with Robert Lee Brewer. In this exclusive 60-minute presentation, you will learn how to build an audience for your poetry. Additionally, you will gain access to the poetry niche on WritersMarket.com for one year! There you will be able to search hundreds of listings for poetry publishers and more.
