Manage episode 297378715 series 2911483
Tamiko Beyer's acclaimed poetry collection Last Days, was assembled from a collection of poetry written over the course of decade, which speaks to Tamiko's sense of open-minded freedom and patience when it comes to work. For Tamiko, the creative process is all about leaving space for play and imagination.

In this conversation, we also discuss:
- How creative playfulness can enact social change
- How capitalism has corrupted the creative process
- How to re-think book launches
- Craft advice for writing poetry
