Pretty Words. Nothing More.: An Unlikely Book of Poetry by Andy Martello

"Pretty Words. Nothing More. is a great read. It shows the beauty of poetry even when there isn't always a happy ending. I have read many of the poems several times. I hope everyone will get a copy (or 3)."- Nina Malek Rawls, entertainer, philanthropist, poetry-lover

From the award-winning author of The King of Casinos comes a very personal work about falling in love with the wrong person.

It started out as images and thoughts shared on Facebook to deal with the pleasure and pain of falling in love, being in love, and losing love.

Before long, they were gathering likes and comments from many well-read people, and those readers were asking for more. Ultimately, the uphill battle fought while trying, and failing, to gain the attention of one specific woman, turned into a reflection and exploration of feelings about six very different, and oddly similar women.

Passionate and succinct, these short-form poems carry a lot of meaning and offer a unique perspective on a universal subject.

By design, this book is very basic and does not feature any images or frills. The sales from this book will aid in funding the publishing of "Pretty Words. So Much More." which will feature high-quality original images and artwork from nearly 20 extremely talented, and largely unknown artists from around the United States.
