My Father is a published poet

due to a scuffle [both parties are at fault tbf i was there the publisher and my dad got very emotional very quickly] he no longer has a publisher

he is a boomer
he has heard about interwebs and would like to publish his poems online there with credit of course

i thought i'd ask you guys since if anyone would ever know it would be you


pic unrelated

Tl;dr Dad wants to publish poems on the internet maybe get a few shekels out of it here and there where should he go?

It unironically is.

But can't pretty much anyone self publish an ebook nowadays? Maybe the dude can start a blog too, put certain ones up there while working on a marketable collection of them to publish. Or he could do the whole patreon thing and just ask for gibs while posting his work that others could enjoy for free.

If your father is already a published poet, surely he has a resume he can use to find another publisher.

Not a clue, was kinda just spit balling ideas. Was never really into the whole blogging scene. I'm sure ddg will be able to help you out, though. If he is already published then it shouldn't be too much of a problem, but he will need someway to give his blog some visibility and bring readers to it. I'd imagine that's why there are so many YouTube book channels. People make videos that would be entertaining in that format, with the ultimate goal being getting their viewers interested in the blog. Not saying he needs to make a YouTube channel, but at least social media to self promote now that he no longer has a publisher to promote for him.

Anyone can self-publish, but that does not mean anyone will ever read them. Getting recognized requires some serious social media clout or other connections.

It's likely that a lot of the people who shit on tattoos are doing it because they like women. the defacement of any beautiful thing or person is sad
