I’m going to Lulu.com my poetry manuscript. I don’t want to have my poems checked for dingleberries - I don’t like the contest system.

I need some help with the cover. If you are an artist & are interested, please email me. I can’t pay much, because of my medical bills. :(

Also, if you have any advice re: lulu.com layouts — fonts, etc — so the book doesn’t look stupid, that would be appreciated.

Thanks.
