The information given in the Poet's Market is very useful as far as what one needs to know to get published. However, a lot of the page number references are not correct. For instance on page 2, third paragraph, it indicates (See the Subject Index beginning on page 539) which in fact it is page 540 and in paragraph 5, same page it indicates that the Book/Chapbook publishers section on page 331 which in fact is 333; and the Contests & Awards section following on page 367 which in fact is 370. ALL OF THESE PAGE NUMBER REFERENCE MISTAKES WERE FOUND ON PAGE 2 AND THERE WERE MORE ON OTHER PAGES AS WELL!!

It appears that when revisions were made that page number references were not changed accordingly.

I am not trying to nick pick; however, when I pay $20.00 for a book I expect better than this.

As always I am completely satisfied with my purchase. I had never before purchased Poet's Market and was concerned it would not be as stated. It is informative and has been of great assistance to me in chosing the appropriate source to submit my writings. Amazon always lives up to my expectations and delivers when promised. Kudos to all!!

No matter what other sources exist for determining which publications buy poetry, what kind they buy, whether they pay, and how long the response time is, the Poet's Market is always at the top of my list.

As always this book has come in very useful. A wealth of information all compiled in one place. Much easier than scouring the internet or looking through random magazines to find the information that this book lists in one place for you.

Looks like a very complete directory of poetry markets and has articles that I need about becoming a published poet. I'm a novice poet interested in publishing what I do for fun on a limited basis. I'm set to retire in 3 years and it'd be a fun way to supplement my pension. I think this resource may help me accomplish this.

Poet's Market publishes an issue each year in September for the following year. It is the go to manual for magazine, Chap books, and computer publication venues of your poetry. Each entry gives every detail you could need. Genre, submission criteria, and other of interests info. The Poet's Market changes from year to year as does the market. An excellent manual to have for newly published poets to find the niches that adores your hearts yakitty-yak. (Yes, I am a published poet many times over)

Product arrived earlier than expected, and has been very useful in my venture into publishing. Definitely recommend this book and ordering directly from Amazon to avoid complications!

I want to get published someday. I think this book will help. I have been writing since middle school.
