Variations of Love
Anthony G. Martinez
Variations of Love is a collection of poems I've already published. Some have heavy edits, minor or none. There are 6 new poems, but those were old poems I'd written when I was young. The plan is early 2025. If I have money before the year's end, 2024 could happen. It's completed. I just need to pay for a cover and some extra stuff.
