Poet Interview: Mira Erni Jaudalso
Getting to Know Pinoy Indie Authors
I truly feel Pinoy (Filipino) Indie Authors are underrated and, most times, underappreciated. In support, I am featuring interviews with Pinoy Indie Authors here on my Blog.
In addition, I have also created a Facebook Page and a Facebook Group specifically dedicated to empowering and equipping Pinoy writers to write, publish, and promote their books.
If you’re a Filipino indie author or writer, come join us! You’re welcome — whether you write in English, Taglish, or Tagalog. We’re all in this together

Q & A with Mira Erni Jaudalso
1. What inspired you to write poetry?
I was charmed by the written verses of poetry. It’s like saying a little prayer that brings silence and comfort to the heart. Poetry brings out all our sensitivities to the surface. It is a powerful tool of expression.
2. Where do you usually find inpiration for you poems?
I often find inspiration in nature, marveling at the beauty it brings to our lives. Trees, flowers, and mountains captivate me, as do celestial bodies like the moon and stars. These elements open endless imaginative possibilities when writing about nature.
3. What themes or feelings do you often explore in your works?
I usually explore the vast spectrum of human relationships — family bonds, friendships, romantic relationships and self-love. These themes evoke emotions that resonate with everyone, making poetry feel like a therapeutic session with oneself.
4. Describe your style in three words.
Traditional. Free. Mixed media.
5. What advice would you give to writers who want to try poetry?
My advice is just to keep this literary art alive, especially for the younger generation. In the old days, poetry was the most respected literary genre. As long as writers keep on creating poems, the art will never be lost.
