Poetry is alive and thriving in the Magnolia State! On the Mississippi Poetry Podcast you’ll hear poets sharing their work, telling their stories, and offering tips to help listeners flex their poetic muscles. In this episode, poet January Gill O'Neil joins host and Mississippi Poet Laureate Catherine Pierce to talk about the poetry of place, the importance of getting the details right, and her favorite month (not the obvious one).
