in quest to get my work (poems) published in went in search of publishers and i stumbled into one: The NewGong. They said there are publishers so i communicated with them and i was asked to send my best work for anthology before i could be considered for publication. This i dd, i sent my very best work. It is more than 6months now and i have not heard anything from them, all  effort to communicate with them has not yeilded any fruit as they do no longer reply my e mails,

please i need some advice because i feel my work is being stolen.

this is their information:
web site: http://www.thenewgong.com/Books.html

address: The New Gong
11 Abiona Close
Off Falolu Road
Surulere, Lagos
Nigeria.

please for those of u guys that stay in Lagos ( I am in Port Harcourt) cloud u please just look up the place for me and tellme what they do there, ie if such a place exsits

i feel for you o
i had the same problem with them i sent in a novel i wrote and although he replied, he said it was total rubbish and not useful. to get my manuscript from them now is a problem, i was told maja pearce (thats his name) travel to the sahara dessert. he sent me a mail that he would be around after 22 of october till now i haven't heard anything from them. maybe you should call and visit them.

don't be suprised, i went to their office once, it didn't look like one

You live in Lagos; they live in Lagos. Why not just visit them? By the way, poetry isn't lucrative.
If you want to make money from your poems, meet a composer to turn the poem into a song.
You can sell your song to a performer with the perfect voice, TV shows needing theme songs,etc.
Why am I saying this? Because if they are not making money, they can't give you money.

segun
i stay in lagos,
that it makes money or not is not the issue here, every thing is'nt money, its my work and that just that
