Stanley Banks Deep In Poetic Thought

Sunday, August 28, 2016

Stanley and Janet Banks on KC Live. See link of video below. We had a blast talking about our books and our writing process as poets who are married. We have a very strong relationship to begin with, but the bond of sharing our love of poetry makes our relationship even stronger.
