About this episode

An interview with Pulitzer nominated poet Charles Clifford Brooks III discussing writing and literature.

I got the opportunity to interview Pulitzer nominated poet, author and publisher Charles Clifford Brooks III. It’s a lively conversation about writing and a short dive into the majesty of Faulkner. Back in Duwali Bottoms, Carl Sr. has a plan. Alana already knows about it. Two young men from Houston who came to Duwali Bottoms because a hurricane left them no choice are about to find out that sometimes the storm knows where you need to be.
