For those who may be NEW to writing sites, we'd like to share those sites where 'caution' should be exercised. Feel free to add to this thread, but remember to ONLY post FACTUAL information, no hear-say... The one site that I have heard and read about across the WWW that is a CAUTION is Poetry.com(one of the domains owned by International Library of Poetry, aka International Society of Poets). The following link provides excellent details on what they're all about: http://poetropolis.com/poetryscams.php Well, Poetropolis is no longer operating, but Kathy has provided another link for us all (TY): http://windpub.com/literary.scams/endall.htm This article also references other sites: Noble House (European branch of poetry.com) The Poem Place (thepoemplace.com - another International Library of Poetry site) Hollywood's Famous Poets Society The American Poets Society (poetryamerica.com) The Poetry Guild Pen Pushers Publications Poets' Guild Iliad Press (Cader Publishing) Addition: Sep 11 2005 (thanks Fran) ! I am sure there is a tile somewhere with information on scams, but I shall add this link here in the meantime: http://www.anotherealm.com/prededitors/pubagent.htm ·············· "It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step into the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to." ~ J.R.R Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings Collaboration feeds innovation. In the spirit of workshopping, please revisit those threads you've critiqued to see if the author has incorporated your ideas, or requests further feedback from you.
