Life as a Poet Vlog The RETURN Vlog 7 The Wick Poetry Center at Kent State University

It's been awhile since I recorded a full-length vlog. My goal for YouTube is to bring you all the most honest depictions of being a literary artist. It was EARLY in the beginning of this video, and I record first-thing the next morning so you're getting the most authentic version of me: the poet before he's had a moment to recollect. Please enjoy this illustration of a short university visit where I share information and helpful advice regarding airport travel, staying at hotels, and taking time for yourself while still following the itinerary given to you by your hosts.
