Category — wisdom of a broken heart

A very different interview with the lovely Irene Rawlings on KBCO in Denver. Specifically about working with heartbreak. In two parts, appropriately enough.

Part 1
Part 2

When in Lexington, KY last month, I did this interview with the lovely poet Katerina Stokoya-Klemer. She interviews writers for her show, Accents. (Her own accent is pretty awesome.)

She interviewed me about my work from a literary perspective. This was a first for me and I enjoyed it very, very much. I also read a short chapter from the book.

Here is a link to the interview, which is about an hour long. Our interview begins about 7 minutes into the show.

Everyone in Denver: I heart you.

While I stayed at Jennifer Louden’s house, we talked about heartbreak, writing, and teaching. Plus she and Bob cooked for me and let me do laundry. It was awesome.

5 Steps to Heal a Broken Heart

Long interview on WebTalk Radio.

A lovely photograph, taken by Konchog Norbu, a monk in Montana. Can you see the broken heart? And how beautifully it’s held by its mountain brothers?

Such a thoughtful, wonderful guy. I love how he pauses to really think about his answers…

Some video musings:

A super proud moment!
