Episode Synopsis
Interview with author and poet Patrick Dixon about his new book, "Mending Holes," Part 3Today we’re continuing to hear parts of my interview with Fisher Poet and author Pat Dixon, who just published a book of poetry called Mending Holes, about his memories of life as a commercial fisherman. One of the topics I love to explore with people who make their way in the creative arts, is to ask them about their process: how do these magical works come to be, seemingly out of thin air. Every writer, poet, songwriter, for instance, seems to tap into that muse, that process, that creative spark, in their own way. So today I’m talking with Pat about how he writes his poems.Many thanks to Brad Wartman of the FisherPoetry Archive Project for his help engineering and recording this interview on Zoom. You’ll find Brad’s extensive library of Fisher Poet Gathering and other maritime related recordings and podcasts on his website at TheFisherPoetryArchive.com.
