Exploring Hybrid Memoirs

This week’s show features guest Faith Adiele, who’s just released two chapbooks that are in conversation with one another. These books are a springboard for a conversation about hybrid writing, hybrid memoirs, the popularity of chapbooks, and hybrid forms. If you’re a writer who’s been told “you can’t do that,” this episode will be validating, if not vindicating. The publishing world is playing catch-up to all the creativity writers are bringing to the fore, and Faith Adiele is at the forefront of a movement of writers who are playing, creating, and breaking both rules and boundaries. Tune in for an interesting, fun, and permission-giving show. And if you’re interested in residencies, check out Faith’s tutorial, “Residencies 101” on the homepage of her website.
