Review 98: Poetic Reflections by Candace Gillespie

Review 98: Poetic Reflections by Candace Gillespie

By Shannon Yarbrough on July 25, 2009

Having used self-publishing to create a chapbook of my own poetry three years ago, I can appreciate any other poet who does the same. Poetry can be very personal, and often goes under appreciated in the publishing world. Many readers will admit they don’t understand poetry. So any poet choosing to put their words out there in front of others, whether it be at an open mic reading at a coffee house or in a small book on Amazon.com, is often revealing a lot about themselves as a person, their emotions, their feelings, their beliefs.
