My piece about the National Cowboy Poetry Gathering’s 35th anniversary appears in the January/February 2019 issue of Poets & Writers. “By and large, it’s women and men from ranching,” says Hal Cannon, keynote speaker for the 2019 event, “people who live that life, who live in open spaces, and who have daily encounters with animals and work. It’s a great perspective for poetry and stories.” To read a brief history of cowboy poetry, please click here.
