: Re: Self publishing a collection of poems I have written four poems and will keep writing more. How many should I put under one collection, and around how many pages should it be? Any ideas on

I can't really advise you on how many poems you need. This is determined by your purpose, audience and how many you can produce.

I can tell you that if you plan out your publication so that it only has to be printed and bound that will be a lot cheaper than if you just present the text to be printed. For example, my wife and I produced a charity poetry anthology of about sixty pages. We sent the pdf and colour cover to the printer and it only cost about Â£2 per copy for a pretty small print run.

Who is your audience and are you expecting to sell your copies or give them away? How big do you want the print run to be? These things affect how you publish.
