It has...been awhile. Sorry about that. But the show is not gone. 

In this short episode, I am reading an essay of my own entitled "The Birthday Card Forgeries." I also speak for the first time about my sister and her autism and how I've been led to write more non-fiction. 

The next full episode of the show will drop on April 3rd. I'll see you lovely people then.

The contest I submitted this essay to is the Missouri Review's Miller Audio Prize. Check it out! (http://www.missourireview.com/audiovisual/submissions/)
You can listen to all the past winners and there are some great entries.

Hello there

The show is back. Found in close up in  Carmen Brady's poetry are the details we notice when we are disconnected from others. That's not to say her poems are always about disconnectedness, but that void of understanding appears as a character itself at times. The shape created by what we don't understand about one another, when we try and fail to communicate truthfully. 

Carmen's poetry has appeared in Metatron, Potluck Mag, Little River Lit mag, Electric Cereal and elsewhere. Her chapbook Eating Alone at Chipotle was published by Bottlecap Press in 2015.
