Ever wanted a 1.5 hour interview of me lipping off in depth about composing and revising my poem “Our Beautiful Life When It’s Filled with Shrieks” from my book If We Had a Lemon We’d Throw It and Call That the Sun? Along with oodles of nitty-gritty poetry writing talk–daily practices, radical free-writing, quelling the inner critic, lineation, creating stanzas, titling? Along with a little Dog Day Afternoon and Goodfellas content? Well, you’re in luck. One just got posted today on YouTube by 1-Week Critique.
Huge thank you to Matthew Schmidt and the awesome gang at 1-Week Critique! This conversation was such a pleasure, and I’m thrilled to share it with you!
