A great private haven for Indy press morsels.
I understand not wanting to have an overly-produced quality to an indie lit podcast, but the excessive “ums” “ahs” and long pauses can make for frustrating listening.
I’ve given 5 stars because I like the project and want it to succeed, but I hope the creator considers tightening it up a little.
Engaging talks on contemporary literature.
Very unpretentious and unguarded conversations between young writers about writing & the insanity of modern life.
It really is

A thoughtful, literary-leaning interview and discussion series that centers on contemporary writing across poetry, fiction, and experimental prose. Episodes spotlight authors and poets exploring language flexibility, publishing challenges, and the craft of storytelling—from neologistic poetry and archipelagic modernism to indie presses, small-press publishing, and genre-bending fiction. Notable threads include the realities of indie publishing, the writing life, and the tension between accessibility and experimentation, often grounded in personal narrative, aesthetics, and community dynamics that shape the indie literary scene.
