My debut collection of poetry, City of the World, is now available to purchase via Creative Talents Unleashed. Both US and international orders can be placed here: http://www.ctupublishinggroup.com/laura-marie-clark.html
This book tells the story of 10 months that I spent living and teaching English in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, through poetry. I really wanted to explore how eye opening living in another country can be. I will be posting extracts from this book from time to time, so keep an eye out for some of my published poems!
If you love poetry, you should spend some time on their WordPress blog looking through the other great authors they have published, their writing tips and their daily writing challenges: http://rajasinsight.com/creative-talents-unleashed/
Creative Talents Unleashed are very eager to get involved with people who love writing poetry and would like an opportunity to get their work noticed. They publish full manuscripts by a single author and also run anthologies throughout the year – a great way for a beginner writer to get noticed!

Thanks 🙂 It still feels great! I understand things now that I didn’t really get before I was published. It’s also easier for me to submit to anthologies and publishers now. The excitement doesn’t wear off, it just keeps growing 😀
