The Famous Poets Society is a vanity press[1] that offers a poetry contest, a convention contest, and self publishing opportunities. They have been in operation for over 20 years and have published thousands of anthologies and individual books for amateur poets. Their convention contests have awarded over $425,000.00 in cash prizes to amateur poets over 8 years.[2] Poets can submit their poems online using the website. All accepted authors receive an acknowledgment letter and can pay to be published in an anthology. For their work published, writers must buy the anthology in order to receive a copy of it. The BBB currently gives them a rating of "B" and lists 11 closed complaints within the past 3 years.[3]
