Welcome to our second episode for Fall into Poetry with a Poet.
Our poet this time is Pam Ebel, and this makes her third appearance on the podcast. Pam is a pure writer, which in my opinion means she writes many different styles and she shares her knowledge freely with us, with other writers at local seminars, and with other writers at national conferences. This year she’s one of the keynote speakers at the Killer Nashville awards banquet.
In our wide-ranging conversation, Pam talks specifically
about poetry as performance and immediate audience interconnection which guides
writers as they place words on the page. While some poems are not suitable for
performance, other poems lend themselves naturally to that combination art
form, poetry performance. Pam covers many topics in our scant time. Here’s the
interview.
Bio: Ebel has been published in Shotgun
Honey, YELLOW MAMA EZINE, Kings River Life Magazine, The BOULD AWARDS 2020 and
2021 Anthology, Tomorrow and Tomorrow 2021 Anthology, and other venues. Her
poetry has appeared in the Delta Poetry Review. A native of California, she now
concentrates on tales from her original home state and tales from the highways
of the South. She also knows, like the Ancient Greeks and the Irish, that as a
Southern writer you can’t outrun your blood.
She has turned to writing full
time as of 2020, obviously either perfect or bizarre timing, and this will be
her fifth career. She lives in Metairie, Louisiana, with her husband and two
cats.
