Poet Kind Podcast

I am joined by the amazingly talented Krista Franklin. Krista's visual work and poetry is provocative, thoughtful, and powerful. Follow along with this great conversation to learn more about her work.

I got to meet Maya Stein for the first time when we sat down to talk about her writing, her passion, and her new project.

We talk summer reading at its best with Shawn Smucker and his new book, The Weight of Memory

I met with Christie Purifoy to find out more about the how's and why's of poetry. Along the way we discover the invitation poetry provides into deeper, and sometimes unexpected, conversations.

C.S. Fritz joins Poet Kind for a few "Incoherent Thoughts, Wonderings, & Poems"*.

I got the chance to talk with Casey Fritz about his new book of poetry, Moth.  This multi-talented artist ask tough questions, makes bold, hard statements about faith, fathers and more in one of the most beautifully designed books I've come across. And, because he cares about the details, he began an amazing little publishing design house called Albatross Design Co.
