Wish I were local but can’t wait to catch the show on podcast! Kirsten Clodfelter is a writer the world needs in its life.
Just as she is, her writing is generous, insightful, wholly unindulgent, and as hardcore as razor blades to butter.
This will be a fantastic show!
You don’t have to be local! ArtFM live streams worldwide over the internet: ARTxFM.com. Tune in 1pm est. The show will be archived, however, on mixcloud.
