Submitted By: Jeff McRitchie

Putting together a poetry anthology can be a rewarding experience.(Poetry) Here are a few things to keep in mind as you get started.

Pick a Theme:
If you make a trip to your bookstore, library or perhaps your own bookshelf, you will notice that for the most part, poetry anthologies are based around one theme or another.The theme can be anything really, including "best local poets under the age of 30," or "best cowboy poetry of the latter half of the 20th Century" or something of the sort.If you are going feature your own work, then of course, you yourself are the de facto theme.Go ahead and revel in that fact for while if you like.Yourself as theme.Think of all of the people who mocked you and your poetic endeavors in the past and smile the smile of the vindicated.
