Episode Synopsis

Send us a textEpisode One  Becoming PoeThis episode basically explains where I am coming from regarding this podcast - my (almost) journey from working at a computer store to being a guide at the Poe  Museum in Richmond - generally believed to be the largest collection of Poe-related memorabilia in the world.  (and a REALLY AWESOME place)Then I explain how I become (more or less) Edgar Allan Poe for the West Virginia Humanities Council History Alive program (what a mouthful)  My job was to travel through the state doing programs as Poe for schools, libraries, book fairs, etc.  And I was surprised to find that Poe was treated like a rock star!So this podcast is about George, but future episodes will introduce the ghost of Edgar Allan Poe, and mark his transition to a regular podcast.  And Mr. Poe has a lot to say!Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
