I was interviewed this week by the MN Reads radio show, which features Minnesota-related authors. The show airs on Duluth’s community station and is hosted by Luke Moravec, who is a new author himself (and also a talented actor, musician, and probably some other things I don’t know about). The interview was about my latest book, High Fire Danger: Poems of Love and Nature. I feel fortunate that Duluth has this media outlet that supports local authors.
You can listen to the eight-minute interview here.

Good interview. And it was nice to hear your voice.
Thanks! I put on my radio/podcaster voice for the poem reading. Not even consciously!
Congrats! Great interview Marie
Thank you! It was a fun experience, even for this introvert.
The interview was dynamic, with depth from you and the interviewer.
Thank you! It was helpful, I think, that this wasn’t our first interview together.
Well that was lovely to listen to, Marie. And so nice to finally hear your voice. You don’t sound at all like an introvert. Well done! 😊
Thanks for listening, Jennifer! I have a long history with this radio station (they taught me how to work with audio files), so I think that was helpful in making me comfortable for the interview.
You’re welcome, Marie. I’m sure that experience was helpful. I have a video interview scheduled for March with my publisher, and let me tell you, I already have butterflies!
Well, at least you know it will be a friendly interview! They only want you to succeed. Plus, the topic is something you know a bit about. 🙂
Of course, you are right. They want me to share the inspiration that led me to write my novel. 🙂
Congratulations, Marie and I enjoyed listening to the interview. You sound so relaxed and it was an insightful conversation.
Thanks for listening to the interview, Annika! We’re lucky to have a station that supports local writers like this.
