We talk with poet, editor, and teacher Rebecca Gayle Howell along with her partner musician Brett Ratliff about writing into received musical and poetic forms, Appalachia and resistance, moving across time and place, Young MC and an incompetent bandit. At the time we recorded this episode, Howell and Ratliff were living in Knott County, Kentucky, and both working at Hindman Settlement School. Now they live in Lexington, KY, where Rebecca still serves on staff at Hindman. Tune in at the episode’s halftime for this month’s writing challenge.
