Conversations in Poetry

In early 2025, I launched a series of Zoom conversations with my favorite poets to read our work to each other, using the theme of the reading as a loose guide for which poems we share. Interspersed with the readings, an informal conversation unfolds in response to the poems, with plenty of open time for participant questions and discussion.
