If you are a poet, how many poems have you written? Question about Copyright too.?
I'm curious as to how many poems people have written. Although, I wrote tons when I was younger, I have started picking it up again. I stopped counting years ago. I wanted to send it all to copyright but I literally had like 500 poems counted out in 1999 and well, I've written WAY more than that in the last 10 years. Is there a limit to how many you can submit?

A few thousand, would be a best guess.
Some basics:
When is my work protected?
Your work is under copyright protection the moment it is created and fixed in a tangible form that it is perceptible either directly or with the aid of a machine or device.
Do I have to register with your office to be protected?
No. In general, registration is voluntary. Copyright exists from the moment the work is created. You will have to register, however, if you wish to bring a lawsuit for infringement of a U.S. work. See Circular 1, Copyright Basics, section “Copyright Registration.”
What is the registration fee?
If you file online using eCO eService, the fee is $35 per application. If you file using Form CO, the fee is $50 per application. Generally, each work requires a separate application. See Circular 4, Copyright Fees.

I've written a couple hundred, had a couple dozen published.
Follow the previous poster's advice regarding copyright. It's solid.
