Jeremy’s poetry podcast
My name is Jeremy Patton. I have started writing, mainly poetry, as a member of The Written Word Group Almanzora.
This podcast is where I have chosen to share my work and also discussion and information about poetry.
Another member of the group, Frank Soderberg, has a podcast of his own. You can find that here: https://twwgalmanzora.podbean.com/
Other members of The Written Word Group have some of their work available to listen to on the podcast hosted by the group’s leader, Berni Albrighton. You can find that here:
