Next Tuesday Tom and I will be hosting Daniel Edward Moore on WOWI — our phirst poet podcast!
Over the last number of decades, Daniel is an award-winning poet whose works have appeared in some of the country’s most prestigious literary journals. Additionally he is the author of “Confessions of a Pentecostal Buddhist“, “BOYS“, and his latest book “Waxing the Dents” published only weeks ago (01Feb2020).
Together with his wife, Laura, they manage the Oak Harbor Poetry Project, which began its third year January this year. It’s held at the Oak Harbor Library where they also have featured poets and — as Daniel told me — “a wonderful open mic tribe!!”
On a personal note… I’m excited about Tom’s and my meeting with Daniel! Poetry is where I found my voice as a writer — these have mostly been decades of private scribbles, I’ve not pursued public presentation with this work — so I look forward to hearing the writing experiences of a published poet. A few years ago a poetry/author friend of mine, Von, put forth a question to me — asking about how poetry exists now having gone from the printed page to e-books. Daniel’s books are also available as e-books …. so let’s find out his take on this!
