I write custom poetry on a typewriter. I invite folks to give me a topic to turn into a poem. They receive a recitation of the finished work, and the original hard copy poem - the perfect memento to capture the event’s festivities: all in all, a uniquely interactive experience! 💌
Derrick exceeded expectations. Our group LOVED having him. He was great to communicate with, very professional and reliable.
Response from Typewriter Poet:
Thank you Rachel! It was a pleasure and true blessing getting to play for the appreciative ears of such warm, welcoming company—and at your beautiful home in an absolutely epic canyon no less!
We loved having Derick, couldn't have been better!
Response from Typewriter Poet:
Thank you, Rachel, for inviting me to your beautiful home to play music. I was feeling inspired, welcomed, and accommodated by all the good company. Feeling blessed for getting to share my songs to such appreciative ears and hearts. 5 stars to y’all!
He was professional, arrived on time, and did a great job.
Response from Typewriter Poet:
Truly a delight getting to write for this special occasion. Big thanks to Lahoma and Anne for having on board alongside the harp player and violinist. All the blessings to you and the fam!
Price Range: $500-$2000
I have a minimal setup: table, chair, typewriter, and a sign welcoming folks to step right up and partake in the making of their very own poem. I take about 10min per poem, and about 5min to speak with the participant.
I’ve written poetry since my adolescent years. I’ve been writing songs, too, for over a decade now. Typewriter poetry came into my life about two years ago. It provides a means for me to connect with strangers, and a container for us to be playful or have a heart-to-heart. We often have a good laugh together, sometimes a good cry.
I’ve written poetry for all sorts of occasions: a business’s grand opening, festivals, cocktail parties, office parties, markets, weddings.
