The 20 Days of Poetry Challenge is a creative endeavor that invites poets to write and share a poem each day for 20 days. Participants will have their collections published as chapbooks, and keep all rights and royalties. We'll just help you get it out into the world!

You can start the challenge any day of the year that you wish! The flexibility allows you to embark on your poetry journey whenever it suits you.

Participants are encouraged to choose their own theme for their poetry collections - or even no theme at all. This is an opportunity to express your unique voice and perspective.

Don't worry! We're here to provide guidance and support to help you shape your poetic vision.

Absolutely! Life happens, and we understand that. You have the flexibility to catch up on missed days at your own pace. The challenge is designed to fit into your schedule.

While titles can add a special touch and allow you to have a Table of Contents page, they are not mandatory. You have the freedom to decide whether or not to give titles to your poems.

All participating poets will have their collections professionally formatted and published as chapbooks. You will receive 100% of the royalties from book sales, retain full rights to your work, and have the option to order author copies all from your own account.

Yes, there is a fee of $100, which goes to the work we do to professionally format and publish your chapbook. Secure payment is required for participation and due on or before your start date. You will receive a payment invoice via email.

Yes, we provide a basic, but elegant book cover design that complements the essence of your work. The cover design is included as part of the overall package.

While we appreciate your creativity and personal touch, we highly recommend utilizing our pre-designed templates for book covers in the 20 Days of Poetry Challenge. These templates are carefully crafted to meet industry standards, ensuring consistency, quality, and a smooth publishing process. Providing your own design introduces complexities, including potential variations in technical specifications, design elements, and adherence to professional standards. Our goal is to streamline the publishing experience for both authors and our team, and using our templates helps ensure a polished and efficient result. If you have specific design preferences, we recommend discussing them with us to find the best solution that aligns with your vision while maintaining the overall quality of the chapbook collection.

Then you are already one step ahead! We can seamlessly integrate your new chapbook with your existing KDP account. Your prior familiarity with KDP will enhance your journey as you navigate the process with ease.

You will use your legal name for your Amazon KDP account, but can use a pen name for your book. During the book registration process, you'll have the opportunity to specify the desired author name, which can be your pen name.

The 20 Days of Poetry Challenge is designed to cover the publication of a collection of 20 poems for the initial fee of $100. If you find yourself inspired to create more than 20 poems, we're thrilled by your enthusiasm! However, going beyond the initial scope of the challenge will require an additional fee.

You have two options:

1. $10 per Additional Poem: You can choose to pay an additional fee of $10 per extra poem beyond the initial 20.

2. $75 Package for 10 Additional Poems: Alternatively, we offer a package where you can publish an additional set of 10 poems for a flat fee of $75.

These options provide flexibility to accommodate your creative output while ensuring fair compensation for the additional effort involved in publishing a larger collection. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if you'd like to discuss the best option for your extended collection of poems.

The price for chapbooks can vary, but a commo range is between $5.99 and $14.99. We generally recommend pricing yours at $14.99.

Life can be unpredictable, and we understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise. While the challenge encourages daily engagement, we understand that circumstances vary for each participant. If you find yourself unable to finish the challenge, you still retain ownership of the poems you've written, and any progress made are valuable contributions to your artistic growth. Should you wish to revisit the challenge at a later time or adapt it to your schedule, the doors are always open.

Absolutely. We understand that life can bring unexpected changes. If, for any reason, you find yourself unable to complete the 20 Days of Poetry Challenge and decide not to publish your book, we offer a full refund. Your satisfaction and comfort in your creative journey are our priorities.

To initiate a refund, simply reach out to our Publishing Specialist. While we encourage participants to embrace the full challenge experience, we respect individual circumstances and choices. Our aim is to make your poetry journey a positive and accommodating experience.

While we encourage creative expression in the 20 Days of Poetry Challenge, it's important to note that the challenge's scope primarily focuses on textual poems with a standard format. If you wish to include illustrations or incorporate unusually complex formatting that goes beyond the challenge's defined scope, an additional fee of $50 will apply. This fee covers the extra time and effort required to accommodate unique formatting and visual elements.
