I didn’t know the poems of Everette Maddox (1944-89) at all till a few months ago but now I absolutely love so many of them. This is from his Selected Poems (UNO Press, 2009).
I teach an online Advanced Poetry Workshops course from October every year. Each week we'll talk about crafting and editing poems, looking at a range of contemporary pieces. We'll workshop students' own poetry and there'll be many writing exercises. https://t.co/LIgBXQVdWh
In April 2023, I experimented with #ChatGPT for the #30Words30Days writing challenge. I asked the AI bot to compose a 30-word story using the daily prompt words for the 22nd, 23rd and 27th: Adjacent, Ritual, and Meeting. 🤖 #ai#blogpost @tallandtrueweb https://t.co/gfoDF26730

I'm adding X to the distribution list for the On The Road With Al & Ivy. The podcasts here will run about a month after regular distribution on the other sites and my X subscription section. Episode 1 is attached to this post.
The sound quality is adequate but I'm working on getting the right audio equipment setup, so the production values will vary on each episode until I get it all dialed in.
Here's the first episode podcast audio file and notes.
Commentary on Hermann Hesse and Marcel Proust.
Topics:
1. Hermann Hesse, Marcel Proust and A.I. Why A.I. can't exactly copy Proust.
Riffing on the Subject Of Rites Of Passage For Men and Women (Humor)
Music: Trouble In Tucumcari, Sunday's Moon, Plains of the Dead by Handa-McGraw International and Mark McGraw.
