I may publish fiction in the future, but nonfiction is easier to sell and publishing ventures are notoriously risky. So to begin with, I'm focusing on nonfiction. I actually WILL be accepting poetry for the ezine, which will be launching in June. And I've been considering a poetry collection of birth poems, a really short book, a collection of maybe 30 poems by different poets.

I am curious why you will only publish nonfiction in this regard. A lot of women writers have excerpts from novels and poetry focused on the birthing process, much of it quite good. Is this necessary? What does it imply? And by the way, good luck with your new venture!
