Poetry Mentoring | One-to-One Feedback Session
START DATES: BY ARRANGEMENT
DURATION: 60 MINS
LEVEL: EMERGING / INTERMEDIATE
COST: €95
LOCATION: ONLINE
A One-to-One Poetry Mentoring Session gives you the opportunity to discuss and receive feedback on a group of poems from award-winning poet Angela T. Carr, in an hour-long online conversation.
Why is Mentoring Useful?
When you’re no longer a beginner and not part of a regular writing group or university programme, it can be hard to get the kind of constructive feedback that allows you to take your work to the next level.
Mentoring provides a fresh perspective on your writing, along with valuable advice on how to refine and polish your work for submitting to literary journals, publishers and competitions.
Why Me?
In the past 12 years, my poems have been placed or shortlisted in over 40 national and international writing competitions, judged by renowned poets like Liz Berry, Daljit Nagra, Wendy Cope, Andrew McMillan, Rebecca Perry, Doireann Ní Ghríofa, and former UK Poet Laureate, Dame Professor Carol Ann Duffy.
With poems published internationally and with several years experience as both a poetry editor and writing facilitator, I know what journals and competition judges are looking for when they read your work.

What’s Involved?
I offer one-to-one poetry mentoring on the following basis:
One hour session via Zoom/phone on a day and time to be agreed;
Based on 6 poems (up to 180 lines) submitted by email at least two weeks in advance of the session;
A follow-up email with resources and reading suggestions.
The mentoring session can be used to discuss your poems in more detail, areas for developing your work, any problems you may be experiencing in your writing, and to answer your questions about revising and submitting your work for publication.
Now available in packages of 3 or 6 sessions.

What Writers Say About Wordbox One-to-One Mentoring:
‘Angela has a very wide knowledge and love of poetry and is generous and sensitive with her suggestions, with the examples she offers and with ways to experiment and develop further. I left with a feeling of excitement, a sense of possibility in work that had been languishing in my files.’ — MOB (ire)
‘Provided much needed distance to help review a series of draft poems I have been working on for a while, and had got a little stuck with. Listening to Angela's feedback gave me new ideas, and prompted new versions of the poems to emerge.’ — SB (UK)
‘Great confidence booster, especially if you're just beginning to get your poems 'out there'…an amazing opportunity to learn from someone who has a huge amount of knowledge and experience in the craft as well as the 'industry' side of things.’ — EMC (UK)
‘Angela gave intelligent and instructive advice in a gentle and encouraging manner... She made several good suggestions and these are things I will try to implement as I progress. I’ve no hesitation in recommending her mentoring service to other writers, and have in fact already done so!’ — TK (UK)
‘I found the session excellent. I was surprised at how much effort and attention had been given to my work, the learning was much deeper than taking workshops or classes, as it gave individual attention to each poem. I am very grateful to have had this experience and will avail of it again in the future.’ — AF (Ire)
‘Well-balanced between specific line by line critique of several poems, and also more general advice and feedback about where to go forward from here in writing, poets to read, exercises to try out and so on. Overall, it was a delightfully positive, encouraging experience and I came away feeling revitalized in my writing practice.’ — DA (Ger)
‘Comprehensive and of huge benefit… I am sorry i did not meet her years ago!’ — PD (Ire)
‘Angela's specific, detailed feedback, enthusiasm, and encouragement have helped me to focus and finish poems I've been wanting to write all my life. Her follow-up email--with a helpful quote from another writer, links to specific poems, and continued encouragement--was worth its weight in gold.’ — CW (US)
