The Art of "short"

I grew up reading short sci-fi stories, which is what I am writing at the moment. When I write stories, they tend to come to a conclusion sooner rather then later.

Re: Do you know of a publisher for poetry? Got any advice?

I just self-published my poetry book. I took a lot of research (and some money) but it was fairly painless. I would be happy to answer any questions, bearing in mind that I'm no expert, but she can learn from my mistakes.

Email me if you want.
