I agree that there is a significant hit on the inbox from AWAI. They seem to be constantly trying to uupsell anything that you puurchase from them. I got fed up with it and so have no further contact with them.
I write poetry and published a short collection a couple of years ago that sold a few copies to family and friends. I have begun to write again and would like to publish, but poetry seems to be a rather difficult genre. I was wondering if anyone has any experience publishing poetry and their thoughts on whether anyone actually buys it anymore, other than a select few.
