In Conversation: Marcia Karp & George Kalogeris
When I think about what makes my creative life fulfilling, I realize that my relationships with other writers and creatives are vital to not just my work, but my life.
We brought two poets together for a conversation. Marcia Karp and George Kalogeris have known each other for 25 years. They have been privy to each other’s successes and to each other’s struggles. They have similar backgrounds but different writing styles.
I imagine their relationship akin to a lifeline: A thread that can be followed back to the beginning, a thread that’s been woven into everything between that beginning and now.
I also realize, when I’m thinking about my own creative life, that when I’m curious, I’m more engaged, more committed, more excited. These events give us a chance to learn, discover, and celebrate what it means to be in a creative community.
