ABOUT THE BOOK
Three poets, each a stranger, had the same dream. Frustrated with phony promises of having their works published that lead nowhere, they envisioned a book where new poets like themselves would be recognized. Through the Internet, James Furber, Michael Cotner, and James Hastings met and shared their dream with each other. Was it possible to actually publish a book of poetry featuring unknowns who had nothing but great talent and the dream to see it through? These three men thought that it was. They gathered friends they had met while posting and sharing poems on the internet. Joined by another dedicated poet, CJ Rider, the four worked diligently to collect, review, format and proof every poem. In addition, CJ did the book illustrations, and another contributing poet, Sherri Tillman, designed the book cover. Truly a project of love, Tapestries of the Heart...Emerging Poets of the 21st Century" is the culmination of this mutual dream.
This is not just an ordinary poetry book. It is crammed full of great, honest poetry. You will read some of the most touching poetry youve ever read." EmergingPoets.com
