S8E9 - Jo Bell

I chat with poet and nonfiction author Jo Bell about her journey from archaeologist to poet to memoir writer, and how the three titles are intimately linked. We talk about writing and critiquing poetry, what a good poem does, learning to receive feedback, and building writing communities. It's really good.
