can you give me a little bit of phrasing you think is optimal? I'm not sure I know how to ask her to join this company without asking her to be part of poetry in america. It does also seem to me perhaps relevant that Serena thinks of herself as a poetry person. For people who think that way, maybe not nothing (hasn't been nothing to others) that a Harvard poetry professor seeks her wisdom on the art form? Would really appreciate your edit. Lisa
