Good news is sometimes hard to come by for poets, and what’s better news than a new book! Celebrate with us as Jason hosts an interview podcast with poets discussing their new books. Each episode is a smart, fun look into the world of poetry. Each guest reads several poems for their new work, and talks about how their books came to be, and how they write the way they do.
