"Ponyboy" Author Eliot Duncan on Book Writing, Real Housewives & Being a Hot Poet 🐎 🧲

hot people make podcasts

Kelly and Larissa of PTK fame sat down with PONYBOY author Eliot Duncan, for a cross-continental chat!

We’re here, we’re queer, & we’re recording a podcast!

Kelly and Larissa of PTK fame sat down with PONYBOY author Eliot Duncan, for a cross-continental chat! We talked about books and publishing (ofc!), about the merits of reality TV (obvs), the universal experience of having a Tracy Chapman “Fastcar” phase in college, and what it means to be a hot poet!

It was also a wonderful opportunity to talk about what community and community building means to authors, whose career is so often seen as a solitary and individual accomplishment. It was truly an honor and great fun! You can catch the full audio version in the podcast above on this post, or if you feel like you’re missing something to look at, you can watch the full video version here:

Poetry Trapper Keeper Podcast
Poetry Trapper Keeper is an online poetry magazine for hot people (if you’re here, you already qualify - so congrats!). Run by Kelly Mullins and Larissa Fantini, it’s a space that celebrates our tween selves, the color pink, and un-precious poetry.
Here at PTK, we believe anyone can write poetry. And that a run-on sentence piece about the Kardashians is just as valid as a Shakespearian soliloquy!Kelly Mullins. We’ll send you a poem every week and podcasts whenever we feel like it. ✌️💋
