Cape Talk radio’s Pippa Hudson Interviews Alien

I’m never comfortable being interviewed live (as opposed to dead? Haha). But Pippa Hudson made it so much fun for me, I think I ended up rambling, sometimes not even answering what she was asking about (yes, I was nervous, and yes I had written down what I wanted to say – but forgot to look at my notes!).

Anyway, I’ll correct a few things I said like the year I wrote my first poem (about 1985 or 1986)…but I’ll have listen to the recording again to see what else.

The poem I read in the end had a funny voice – my wife didn’t like! Haha.
