Welcome to my Poet Lady Chat Room. I would like to invite you to click on the chat box and type in a question, a suggestion, submit a poem, in other words – “chat with me.” I may, if you submit a poem, decide to feature it in my Poem of the Week section or, we may simply exchange ideas and suggestions about your poem.

This is a place to “talk” poetry with someone who has loved it all her life. I have a true passion for the possibilities of poetry and would love to hear your thoughts and/or read your poem. I will be happy to offer my reaction to your work and, based on over 40 years of teaching poetry, organizing, and conducting poetry workshops, working as a book review editor for an international poetry magazine, authoring five books of poetry and two textbooks on teaching poetry, send along my thoughts on ways to make your poem stronger and more impactful.

If you’re on my site, you have a connection to poetry. Feel free to connect with me – right here -right now, by typing your message into the “chat box” and clicking send. I’m waiting…

 

Your friend in poetry, Susan

Dear Mam,

I am Ritabrata Ghosh or 'RG983' as per my username here. I have submitted my writings in this chatroom thrice & all the three times mine writings were selected by you & posted. I am truly inspired by the meticulously designed words you use in your poetry. You had praised me of my writings saying that I inscribe them with a deep thoughts. I live in the foothills of Himalaya; Siliguri, West Bengal, India. Very much keen towards literature, I love writing poems & read them too. It will be a complete pleasure for me to get myself immersed in your book which is inclined towards Greek Mythology. I am aware of the fact that literature has a great role to play with mythologies & thus looking forward to read your beautiful lines.

Thus, am interested to get a free copy of the book signed by you yourself. It would be a great honour for me to receive it.

Hope you feel my words & choose me from amongst those lucky 10 who would read this book.

Looking forward to your kind response.

Yours Respectfully, 

Ritabrata Ghosh

Thank you for your kind and complimentary words.  I am happy to encourage talent and creativity wherever, and whenever, I find it.  I believe you have those qualities.  My book comes out on the 31rst of August.  As of this minute, I have no copies of it.  As soon as I do, I will select 10 people who have said they want a signed copy of the book, and send it to them.  Since you are the first to say you look forward to reading my book, you will be the first one I select to receive a copy.  Please send your address to me here, in the Chat Room.  Your friend in poetry, Susan
