In this NBN episode, host Hollay Ghadery interviews Andrew Fadyen-Ketchum about his poetry collection, Fight or Flight (Stephen F. Austin State UP, 2023).
Fight or Flight artifacts the trauma of McFadyen-Ketchum's divorce and the journey he took across the wilds of America (living in a tent on the California coast, getting intentionally lost in the Utah desert, tracking wild animals in the bitter cold of Indiana winters) in search of healing that led to the greatest discovery of all: his indigenous wife and her three children he now calls his own.
Andrew Fadyen-Ketchum is an author, editor, and ghostwriter. He is author of three poetry collections, Fight or Flight, Visiting Hours and Ghost Gear. He is the assistant Director of the Owsley Fork Writer's Sanctuary, Founder and Editor of PoemoftheWeek, The Floodgate Poetry Series, and Apocalypse Now: Poems and Prose from the End of Days; He is also the acquisitions editor for Upper Rubber Boot Books.
