Goodness, more news already! The sap really is rising.
I was delighted to speak with Radha Marcum, the creator of Poet to Poet, about my process and journey with Far Country, which celebrates its first birthday this week.
Radha and I talked about what I discovered about this book after it was finished, poetry as an act of devotion, and how the greatest breakthroughs happen for me when I think I’m already done. Also, my theory of the Earth as the original poem gets put on the record.
As we spoke, I felt alive, connected, and in awe of the poetic imagination as it moves through us all. It is so precious, this business of being in creative community with others. In that spirit, welcome to my kitchen table. Enjoy!
Ps, Radha has an amazing backlog of other wonderful poet interviews, so please keep exploring.

If you haven’t yet found your way to the pages of Far Country yet, please come visit me there! Order here or from your local place. Seriously, a book of poems is the cheapest and safest way to travel between worlds that I can think of, and I’d hate you to miss the adventure.
