• broadcasts on Patreon, YouTube, SoundCloud and through the Alliance of Independent Authors’ networks on the last Wednesday of each month.

Each month, I introduce audio readings by three indie poets and talk about why they were selected. My aim is to introduce our listeners to some of the most exciting, inspiring, and dynamic voices working in poetry today.
