In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Laura Harper Lake and Sarah Wrightsman sit down with poet Diannely Antigua. Diannely is a Dominican American poet and educator. She is the founder of The Bread & Poetry Project and the host of a podcast by the same name. Not only is Diannely the current Poet Laureate of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, but she is the youngest and first person of color to receive the title. This episode was recorded in front of a live audience at Exeter High School with support from the NH State Council on the Arts! Special thank you to our friends at Exeter High School! Before we jump into the interview, this episode kicks off with a writing workshop led by Diannely — we encourage you, our listeners, to play along! In this episode we cover Diannely’s journey  from journaling as a young girl all the way to publishing her first — and now second — collection of poetry!
