The Wordsmith podcast is up. Come visit me in Australia.

I’ve mentioned in a couple of past posts that I was interviewed for an Australian poetry podcast called Wordsmith. You didn’t think I’d lie about something like that, did you?

Well, burn and drown your suspicions in castor oil, my friends, because the episode is now live.
Here’s the Spotify link.

If you’re not a fan of Spotify, fear not – it’s also on Anchor:

Bestselling Australian poet (yes, you read that right – down under, apparently, poetry books can become bestsellers) Kelly Van Nelson interviews me and allows me to perform a few pieces: “Like Poem”, “An Ode to the Moon”, “Kids Write Jokes: A Found Poem” and one that I don’t do often, “Online Public Shamer”.
I rarely read the last one because it’s a controversial take on cancel cul—I mean, online shami—I mean, Twittermobbi—okay, FINE, “accountability”.

In the meantime, keep your ears peeled and your eyes flaked for some Zoom events I’m involved in. Tomorrow is another Ad Lib Talent show (celebrating host Damon Lum’s birthday), and there’s more stuff coming in the next three or four months.

And congratulations to America’s new leader, President NotTrump.

Bye now.
