Notes:
"Recently Thin Air Video interviewed a wide group of New York poets, investigating their lives and their individual writing methods. We grouped these interviews into "trios," matching up these poets by genre, style and point of view. In each of these triple plays, we learn of three poets' modus operandi, glean inside information on methods of inspiration, their processes, influences, likes and dislikes, talents and gifts. These three-packs are wonderfully instructive for creative writing workshops, to inspire emerging poets, broaden their outlook and challenge them to critique their own work in depth and honesty, and to move beyond clichés. At the same time the talk is deep enough for experienced writers and researchers to gain insight from the horse's mouth."--Container.
