How To Publish Your Own Chapbook Workshop (returning in 2025)
THREE consecutive MONDAY EVENINGS
2025 Winter Dates to be Announced soon
(6:30 to 8:30 pm EST on ZOOM)
One of the most satisfying moments for poets is the first time they see their poems published, but in today’s highly commercialized market there are so few traditional opportunities for publication. If poets want their poems published in book form, self-publishing poetry is not just considered acceptable–it is the norm.
The most commonly recognized format is the chapbook. It is economical and easy to create, but certain fundamental skills are needed to prepare and print this important publication, often the first time their poems are delivered to the world. Chapbooks can be any size, the number of pages varies from 16 to 40 depending on how many poems they contain.
Micropress publisher James Dewar will present a three part series that will guide emerging and well-known poets through the process of publishing their poetry in a chapbook.
A Word Template for a 6″ x 9″ book will be provided at the beginning of the class in Microsoft Word and Open Office formats and will be the template used by participants to design and finish their chapbooks.
At the end of the workshop participants will have print-ready pdf templates to take to a printer, upload to a Print-on-Demand provider and an E-Book provider. (Amazon is used in this workshop to demonstrate this process.)
COST: $249.00 + 13% HST for all 3 workshops.
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:
• Either Microsoft Word or Open Office Writer installed on your computer
• Every day familiarity with the features of Microsoft Word or Open Office Writer
(These are the only two templates available in the workshop.)
• A computer with an internet connection and a zoom interface that properly accesses video and sound.
(Note: using a cellphone or a small screen device is not recommended.)
• A generous selection of poems and/or pieces (20+?) edited and ready for insertion into the chapbook template. (You may decide to change the order of pieces or make changes to pieces once they are in the template, but try to limit this as much as possible to avoid creating layout issues in the template. The more prepared your pieces are before the layout begins, the easier the process will be.)
• Since most of the layout will be achieved between classes, set aside the time to complete these tasks. I WILL BE AVAILABLE TO HELP OUT BY EMAIL IF YOU HAVE ANY DIFFICULTY.
• Patience and enthusiasm

Nov. 13th, 2014 – Cathy Petch is our Performance Feedback Host!
WRITE ● CRAFT ● READ
NEXT INKSLINGERS NIGHT: THURSDAY November 13th, 2014
This month we’re trying something a little different; instead of having a guest host for the poetry workshopping session, Inkslingers has invited a guest host to do the PERFORMANCE session.
We are delighted to announce that this month’s guest host for our performance segment will be Cathy Petch one of the most popular and gifted poets on the Spoken Word scene.
INKSLINGERS offers a poetry evening (2nd Thursday every month) at the Black Swan Tavern – 3rd floor. This evening is designed to get poets and aspiring poets all writing, revising, and performing..
WRITE
The first hour (beginning at 7:00) will consist of writing exercises facilitated by Sue Reynolds designed to give you an hour to write poetry then-and-there. Bum in chair. Engaged and present and productive. This event is open to anyone as long as they have come to write. Bring a pen and paper.
Sue Reynolds has been leading writing workshops in Canada and internationally for 15 years. Many poems and short stories written in exercises with Sue have gone on to literary publication and to win prizes in competitions. (Recently, a short story begun by a participant in Sue’s Sanctuary won the $1000 Amprosia prize and one of the participants in the Novel Approach course she taught with James just signed a 2 book deal with Simon and Schuster for the project she wrote in that course). The costs of Sue’s workshops run between $80 to $300 per day, but she is leading these exercises gratis because she believes that much of the best poetry happens in that energy of writing community.
CRAFT
The second hour (from 8:10 to 9:10) consists of workshopping poems that writers have revised to the place where they now want input from fresh eyes.
Bring at least 20 copies of a poem (no more than 30 lines) that you want to present for feedback. Each participant will have a maximum of 7 minutes to both read the poem and receive feedback on their work from those in attendance who wish to make constructive comments. (Further feedback may be offered in writing on the submitted copies).
We are normally able to review 7 or 8 poems during this hour.
This portion of the evening will be facilitated by Creative James Dewar, host of Hot-Sauced Words Poetry Performances, Now in it’s sixth year (Third Thursday every month!) at the Black Swan Tavern.
READ
The final hour (from 9:20 to 10:20) is an open mic. Writers may read a poem they created in the first hour of the night, or may read something they bring with them for this purpose. Each writer will have 3 minutes to perform a poem. After each poem is read, the audience is asked to support each reader with kudos for aspects well handled, and any suggestions for ways to make reading the poem more effective. It’s all about learning the entire craft!
This month the Performance portion of the evening will be facilitated by a guest facilitator. We’re delighted to announce that Cathy Petch will be our guest host for this portion.
Cathy Petch is a playwright, spoken word artist, haiku deathmaster and musical saw player for The Silverhearts. She has several handsome chapbooks and published her poetry book Late Night Knife Fights with LyricalMyrical Press. She has been published by Descant, The Toronto Quarterly and Joypuke journals.
She is a member of The League of Canadian Poets and “The Dildettes” a queer spoken word/comedy troupe along with Regie Cabico and David Bateman.
Petch was a member of both the 2011 and 2012 Toronto Poetry Slam Teams.
She is happiest onstage.
