Latest up from Spoken Label (Spoken Word / Poetry Podcast) features making her debut is Kathryn Millington talking about her debut poetry collection 'Imprint'.Some thoughts said about Kathryn's collection:“It is rare to find a collection that is brave enough to place the complexities of IVF and the strange world of grief that the infertile inhabit in such direct light. Kathryn Millington's collection Imprint does just that. This is a story of confrontation and acceptance, a journey into a world that feels niche, but is anything but. The poetry world benefits from sharing experience, it will be enriched by this collection.”Wendy Pratt‘” Kathryn's poems move me, make me laugh, reflect on this strange business we call life and feel more hopeful about navigating a path through it. These are tender, beautifully crafted poems that work on the page and in the air. Read them, keep them with you.'Helen Mort‘”Kathryn Millington's Imprint is a gutting account of involuntary childlessness. Adeptly bending rhyme and form, Millington conjures yearning visions of the future alongside memories that ache and sing with loss. In this compelling debut pamphlet, grief is bound in the strings of “a mobile, shot through with sunlight” and hope is a stinging barb that pierces the reader again and again.”Chris Lanyon“I am at a loss for words, because you have said them all”Benjamin ZephaniahThe collection can be bought from:https://fawnpress.co.uk/product/imprint-by-kathryn-millington/

In this episode, Jennifer chats with Allie Millington about the profound impact of literature, particularly middle grade books, on identity and connection. They discuss the themes of loneliness and bravery in Millington's book Olivetti,'and the importance of fostering authentic connections in a hyper-connected world. Millington shares her experiences with young readers during school visits, the significance of endorsements from figures like Tom Hanks, and her upcoming projects, including a new middle grade novel and a picture book. Show notes, including episode transcripts and information about connecting with this episode's guest, can be found here. Chapters Books became an escape and a safe place for me. I want to write books that touch young people's lives. Middle schoolers are my favorite age group. The antidote to loneliness is connection. Olivetti is a story about bravery. Middle grade is not just for 9 to 12 year olds. Empathy and acceptance are important in storytelling. I want to encourage conversations about loneliness. Tom Hanks' endorsement changed everything for me. Typewriters connect different generations.

Shain Brenden! Comedian! Friend! Delight! His new album is Either Way, Pretty Funny! ABOUT THIS ALBUM: On this debut album, Shain paints a picture of a guy trying his best with what he's got: being outnumbered and bullied by the women in his family, getting kicked out of an ultrasound appointment, and defending his completely appropriate and not weird at all love of NBA rookies. He closes it all out with an original slam poem with a topic untouched by poets at large: working the drive-thru at McDonald's. ABOUT SHAIN BRENDEN: When a sandstorm left his unit stranded in Afghanistan on Christmas Day, Portland-favorite and military veteran Shain Brenden did his first set during an impromptu talent show. He's since traded in his uniform for a microphone and for over a decade has been featured on Don't Tell Comedy, on SiriusXM Radio, and at various comedy clubs and festivals around the country. Now, Black & Filipino-American comedian, writer, and actor, Shain is proudly the second most famous person from Millington, Tennessee (after Justin Timberlake). PLEASE ENJOY!

In this episode of The Halloween Podcast, we're diving into the haunted history of Tennessee, the Volunteer State. Host Lyle Perez, a Tennessee local, takes us on a journey through some of the most spine-chilling haunted locations. From eerie plantations to ghost-filled theaters, Lyle shares both history and paranormal experiences, including some personal encounters in Savannah, Tennessee. Grab your flashlight and get ready to explore ten of Tennessee's most haunted places. Featured Locations: The Cherry Mansion One Cherry St., Savannah, TN 38372 Overlooking the Tennessee River, Cherry Mansion is haunted by the ghost of Mrs. Cherry and Union soldiers who roamed its halls during the Civil War. Visitors report seeing specters near the windows and hearing the sounds of medical equipment from when the mansion served as a hospital. The Rotherwood Mansion Rotherwood Dr, Kingsport, TN 37660 Known for the tragic spirit of Rowena Ross, who lost two fiancés before taking her own life, Rotherwood Mansion is home to her ghost, often seen in a white gown wandering near the Holston River. Many feel a deep sadness in her presence. Shiloh National Military Park 1055 Pittsburg Landing Rd, Shiloh, TN 38376 One of the bloodiest Civil War battlefields, Shiloh is haunted by soldiers' spirits. Phantom gunfire, battle cries, and shadowy figures are frequently reported near Bloody Pond and Shiloh Church, where ghostly hymns are heard. The Lotz House 1111 Columbia Ave, Franklin, TN 37064 During the Battle of Franklin, the Lotz House became a field hospital. Apparitions of soldiers, the sound of musket fire, and ghostly footsteps are common in this Civil War-era home, making it a favorite spot for ghost hunters. The Orpheum Theatre 203 S Main St, Memphis, TN 38103 Famous for its ghost, Mary, a young girl who died in front of the theater, the Orpheum is alive with paranormal activity. Mary is known to playfully flick lights and interact with staff, while phantom applause echoes through the theater after shows. Wheatlands Plantation 2506 Boyd's Creek Hwy, Sevierville, TN 37876 This plantation is haunted by Native American spirits, children, and former owners. Visitors hear cries and laughter in the basement, while shadowy figures roam the grounds near a mass grave filled with Cherokee remains. The Bell Witch Cave 430 Keysburg Rd, Adams, TN 37010 The Bell Witch legend began in the early 1800s with the Bell family, who were tormented by a vengeful spirit. The cave is considered a portal for the spirit, and visitors report hearing whispers and footsteps, often feeling watched by unseen eyes. Carnton Plantation 1345 Eastern Flank Cir, Franklin, TN 37064 The site of one of the Civil War's bloodiest battles, Carnton Plantation is haunted by Confederate soldiers and a ghostly nurse who is seen watching over the wounded. The property is also home to strange noises and disembodied cries. Old South Pittsburg Hospital 1100 Holly Ave, South Pittsburg, TN 37380 This abandoned hospital is notorious for shadowy figures and ghostly voices. One of the most haunted rooms is Nelly's Room, where visitors experience slamming doors and strange, unexplainable noises. Meeman-Shelby Forest 910 Riddick Rd, Millington, TN 38053 This park is home to the terrifying legend of the Pigman, a disfigured man who roams the woods. Visitors brave enough to call his name three times by Pigman Bridge report seeing shadowy figures and hearing growls deep in the forest.
