Complaint Review: The International Library Of Poetry Poetry.com

When I first found out that I was going to be published I cried because my dreams were finally coming true. I have put 22 poems on their web sight and everyday I would check to see if they had accepted any of them for publishing.

Day by day, every one of my poems, all 22 of them were accepted and I thought that I had a great chance of being a known poet. They sent me a copy of one of my poems to edit through the mail and I wondered why I had not recieved any of the other poems to edit since every one of them had been accepted to be published in the book. I did send off for 2 books and sent them a payment on them at the same time.

I was glad to get the book, but when i looked through it, only one of my poems were inside it. Where are the other poems that they said were going to be in the book.

I feel like I am giving them something to make money off of. After all I had to pay for the book, They are literally making money off of me. They should have at least gave the book to me. I never knew that there was so much fraud out there. I feel like my poetry is making them money and I get nothing, except the book that I bought. I should get something for making Poetry.com money. Money that I helped them make.
