UPDATE: AlzAuthors Poetry Anthology Publishes June 1st!

May 07, 2024 11:00 am

Hello ,

I am pleased to tell you that our anthology Poetry for the Dementia Journey is now available for pre-order on Amazon!

The book officially launches in both paperback and Kindle on June 1^st – in time for Alzheimer's and Brain Awareness Month. We will also publish with Draft2Digital, which will put it in many other stores, such as Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and Hoopla. The eBook will sell on all platforms for $9.99 and the paperback will sell for $14.99. (Discounted paperbacks will be available to the contributing poets. If you would like to order one please let me know.) All royalties will benefit AlzAuthors' mission to provide quality resources for Alzheimer's and dementia caregivers. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

Here is a link to download a PDF copy. Please review the anthology with care, especially focusing on your own poem(s), bio, and acknowledgements (if you have them). Email us with any errors or omissions at alzauthors@gmail.com. We will do our best to make corrections prior to launch day. The final manuscript must be submitted to Kindle Direct Publishing by May 28^th.

This is a moving, hopeful, heartwarming collection all written from the personal experience of dementia. Within its pages, readers will find nuggets of wisdom and glimpses of joy. I'm extremely proud of what we have managed to create.

A book launch is planned and includes a virtual reading featuring the poets on Monday, June 3 at 4:00 pm EST. I hope you can join us. This will be on Zoom and recorded for both our podcast and YouTube channel. Please complete this form indicating whether or not you will be present.

We will also create a news release, blog post, newsletter, and social media content which will be available to you to promote the book to your own audience. That should be available in the next week or so. In the meantime, you can use the above graphic (right click, copy, and paste) to direct your followers to the pre-order page on Amazon using this link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D3CCK368

Thank you for your contribution to this fine book. I believe it will inspire, inform, and comfort readers for years to come.
