F***ing Shakespeare podcast

F***ing Shakespeare

The high-art low-brow minds behind Bloomsday Literary bring you interviews with the creatives you should know, but don’t. Poets, novelists, memoirists, & short story writers join co-hosts Kate and Jessica as they take a respectful approach to investigating the writer’s art and an irreverent approach to getting the nitty-gritty on the hustle for publication and exposure. Most of us writers making a living by the pen occupy somewhere between the ubiquitous bestsellers and the people who want to write but bemoan the lack of time to do it. So let Terry Gross interview the top 1%. We’ll set to work making community with everyone else.
