Writing poetry?

Question: Writing poetry!?

okay I write really good poetry, and my ultimate goal is to have my own poetry book published one day!. So my question is how do I go about doing this, and how hard is it!. I know it's pretty difficult to get a childrens book published, so I was wondering about poetry!. also I have written all of my poems threw my teenage years, so the book would be geared towards teens!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, maybe before you try to get a whole book published, you could try to get separate poems printed in magazines!. Here are some magazines and other writing sites you could try:

Writing contests are pretty good!. Look through magazines and news papers and submit some of your work!. That will get you noticed!. There is a writers magazine too (I don't remember the name) that you could subscribe to as well!.
