I’m very happy to have this interview by Patty Paine of Diode Editions in their Substack newsletter. Note you can access it here. I’d be really grateful also, if you share this on social. We discuss working-class writing, humor, and talk a bit about my contest-winning and Lammy-shortlisted chapbook, Dancing Backwards Towards Pluperfect. And there are some bonus photos you might enjoy.
