							| Collection of stories and poems 
 |  
							| Hi, I have written a collection of short stories and poems under the theme/title " Iconic Figures of Celebration" in which the stories and poems focus on prominent figures in every celebration ( Santa for Christmas, Cupid for Valentine �s Day, Jack-O-Lantern for Halloween, Easter Bunny for Easter, Leprechaun for Saint Patrick �s Day, Jack Frost for Winter, Father Time for New Year �s Eve, Mother Earth for Earth Day, Jester for April Fool �s Day, Turkey for Thanksgiving, Three wise men for Epiphany and many more), I had tried the stories with children ( pupils) and adults and they all loved them and told me to publish my works.   However, In Malaysia, it is hard to publish English work since English is our second language and not the first language, can anybody help me on how to publish my works so that I could expand these works to nationwide and probably international level. I think children will love them and I think they can be very useful in teaching English especially on cultural exposure and celebrations.   Please Help me, Thank you.   Sirhajwan |  27 Apr 2011

							| If you are interested in self publishing you might want to look at lulu.com   - you can create e-books, paper back, hard copy, black and white, color etc.  They  have templates for books as well. |  27 Apr 2011
