Writers on Record

In our first ever joint interview, I sit down with Wayne Miller and Kyle McCord. Wayne Miller is the author of four poetry collections and translates Albanian works to English. He is the recipient of the George Bogin Award, the Lyric Poetry Award, and a Ruth Lilly Fellowship. His newest collection Post- is a sometimes haunting, sometimes humorous, but always beautiful book that shows past experiences becoming present actions, a book that deals with loss, new life, and political conflict and violence.  Wayne lives in Denver with his wife and two children and teaches at the University of Colorado in Denver. He is also the managing editor at Copper Nickel press. Wayne will be the first voice you hear. Kyle McCord is the author of six books of poetry including his newest collection, Magpies in the Valley of Oleanders. He has work featured in the Boston Review, Denver Quarterly, Michigan Quarterly Review, TriQuarterly and elsewhere. He's received grants or awards from the Academy of American Poets,
