Today Poet and MFA Director, Dr. Emily Carr plays her poetry game, Dr. Carr’s Word Forage, with us. We toss around multi-species labels, discuss the most recent dream we remember, and engage in poetry sabotage. Learn the creative value in cheating, stealing, and rigging workshops. Listen to Kaisha read in her epic Alfred Lord Tennyson voice. Discover the art of the “Sorry, Not Sorry” poem and so much more!
Welcome to Read.Write.Repeat.
May’s giveaway is inspired by OSU-Cascades’ Wheel of Fortune cohort and their capstone project. This month we have 7 prizes to give away, each inspired by one of the 7 Wheels. That means we will have 7 winners! We explain more about how the giveaway works toward the end of the show notes.
Our totally awesome intro was created by Mike Fraedrich. You can find more from Mike at mikefraedrich.com & brighttowers.com. The first one points to his Twitter, the second his music. Thanks, Mike!!
