Bobby Steve Baker (author of Numbered Bones) is set to release a new collection of ekphrastic poetry, This Crazy Urge to Live (Linnet’s Wings), and was recently interviewed by Bop Dead City (you can read the interview by clicking here). In the interview, he talks about his greatest influences, his inspirations, and even doles out some wisdom for aspiring poets:
“I don’t care what critique groups say about a poem; if I like it then it’s a keeper.”
This Crazy Urge to Live is expected in March, so keep checking out the Linnett’s Wings site, or stay tuned to the Accents Blog for updates on all of our authors as well as anything Lexington poetry-related.
