Tell Me a Story.
I'll Write a Poem.

Picture

 
I love people.
I love stories.
I love words.
 
Put those together, and you have 3-Minute Poetry.
 
If you are looking for a unique experience for an upcoming event, you might want to hire a poet (ahem, me) to provide guests with the chance to have a one-of-a-kind poem written exclusively for each one of them.

Pam asked me to write a poem for her future grandchildren. I adore this woman.
What does the great grandson of a serial killer, a ten-year old gamer, and a hoarder of words have in common? I heard their stories and wrote them poems at the Crest Hill Library.

I only cried twice this round.

If you are at an event, just come up to my booth. Choose from a number of story prompts. These are from Story Corps and include everything from "describe your proudest moment" to "tell me about a person who has inspired you in your life." Or I can ask you questions. I love getting to know people. You have 3 minutes to tell me your story, and I have 3 minutes to craft a poem for you. Sometimes it goes a little longer.

If I'm writing with purple pen, I'm working on a poem. Just give me a few minutes. I'll be right with you when I'm finished!

I get to practice my craft (risk humiliation), you get a poem, and we actually get to know each other. Doesn't that sound great? (It's actually freaking magical.) Of course, you're welcome to talk about or buy my books.

Thank you for the tips, too.
