Renda Writer Trying To Get On Ellen Degeneres Show

My name is Renda Writer, and I am a poet based in South Florida. Ever since 2007 it has been my goal and my dream to one day perform my poem, "Half Hearted" on The Ellen Degeneres Show. Over 1,000 people have signed my online petition (http://www.RendaWriter.com) to show their support of me reaching my goal. You can see some video of my poems at http://www.YouTube.com/RendaWriter. Also, in January I am putting together a national group art show called "The 2nd Annual Ellen Art Show" that will feature 50 portraits of Ellen Degeneres and will be a charity fundraiser for an anti-bullying nonprofit organization. More info about the event: http://www.EllenArtShow.org.

My friend Renda Writer has worked tirelessly for FOUR years to make his dream of performing his beautiful poem, “Half Hearted” on her show. He is a big fan, a great people person and a relentless man! 

In an effort to get closer to his dream and for Ellen’s birthday - he curated “The 2nd Annual Ellen Degeneres Art Show” in downtown Los Angeles. 

Here is Ellen Degeneres herself, talking about 2 of the 67 paintings that were part of a national art show that Renda Writer curated, hosted, and produced. The event benefited The Trevor Project which is the leading national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning youth. 

So proud of you, Renda!

This is me, performing my poem, "Half Hearted," in Central Park, which is the place that inspired me to write it.  My goal, and my dream, is to perform this poem on The Ellen Degeneres Show.  I think her Valentine's Day episode would be the perfect outlet for it.  What do you think?    (Please Reblog)

Since 2007 it has been my goal, and my dream, to perform this poem on The Ellen Degeneres Show. I think the world really needs to hear a romance poem right now, and this poem relates a poetic metaphor between the half-heart-shaped neck of a swan in Central Park and the universal human search for love and romance. I wrote it in Central Park, shortly after 9/11, at a time when I felt like the world could use a romance poem, and I still feel that way. I really think that Ellen Degeneres and her viewing audience will enjoy this poem, and hopefully it will help to open up doors for other poets to begin appearing on daytime talk shows.

I have the worst memory ever so no matter who comes up to me - they’re just, like, ‘I can’t believe you don’t remember me!” I’m like, ‘Oh, Dad, I’m sorry!’
