Trying to Catch Up to You *Extended Cut*
This week, we read a piece titled "Trying to Catch Up to You," from our third site. Matt and Alvin discuss the vulnerability and courage required to share an all-too-common grief that many of our students carry. In this extended cut of the Podcast, we also talk about the power of art as it stands alone. And Matt goes into more detail about the process of the upcoming week-long intensive.
It was raining at the UW headquarters; please ignore that rattling sound at the beginning.
Note: We are a creative writing program serving at-risk populations. We do not broadcast names or identifying details of the students we work with.
