A memorial podcast to my grandfather, Daddybuck, who inspired me to write, to wonder, and to believe in things. I wander through his unpublished poetry and add my own words because I loved him and I miss him, and I want to share his ideas with you.

Writers are often self-deprecating... and then, somehow, continue to write and show their work to others. Daddybuck was no exception. These pieces are about writers, which I like to think includes himself, and me, and so many creators besides.

Hello, and welcome to Daddybuck's Notebook! This is a memorial podcast dedicated to my grandfather, who inspired me to write. I go through his unpublished writing and share my own versions, paying it forward from the inspiration he gave me. This episode's poem is called "Giving," a bittersweet musing on being human. My own version is called "Living," a slightly angrier musing (this is my post-2016 writing style) that still reminds itself that good people exist :) Transcripts here: https://lindsaywrittendown.wordpress.com
