Episode 607: Brian Turner!

On today’s show, John talks poet Brian Turner about learning to write the thing we need to write rather than the thing we want to write, the long conversations we have with those we love, and the processes of nature, including grief. His trio of new poetry volumes is out now from Alice James Books.

And let me take this comment to wish everyone at The Drunken Odyssey a Happy New Year. May 2024 bring more curated schlock and another novel from John!

  Thank you, DJ. I have no books pending, but I will try to keep the words bursting forth. May your own writing take you to wonderful places.
