Both Rui and Leena have experience and references regarding their software and development skills, and will provide work samples upon request.
From Leena Prasad, who specializes in haiku, senryu and other Japanese-inspired poetic forms:
So, you have written several haiku, senryu, or tanka. Maybe you have a collection of haiga. Now what? You can publish them in a book but, really, smart phone apps are where people are spending a lot of their time and these Japanese inspired forms are well-suited for the small screen.
I converted my senryu book ‘not exactly haiku’ into an iPhone/iPad app and can do the same for you. I can also create an Android version. Check out my app by searching for it in the Apple iStore or by following the links at
ThinkersInk.com.
– Basic app package: cover page with menu items (Favorite, Contents, More…) + one author page + 20 pages (screens and menu similar to ‘not exactly haiku’) + ability to mark each page as favorite and email and tweet the text content + a “more” page with six buttons, one of which links to the author page and five which can link to any url.
– Additional static screens, $3 / page: screens and menu similar to ‘not exactly haiku’.
– Additional dynamic screens, $TBD: customized screens with buttons, etc.
– Yearly Fee: to keep the app in the online store.
