Description
Licensed Poetics is a podcast where writers talk about books. Every fortnight, two writers, Fung-Ling and Derek sit down and get (overly) critical and excited about fiction, non-fiction, poetry, film, TV, or any other form of creative storytelling. In LP’s bookclub/film club/TV clubs, they offer their very honest and very writerly opinions. LP also invites talented people as guests to join their discussions, or to offer insight into the creative process.
