Episode description and notes

Autumn Williams Autumn Williams Poetry When the chronic illness I have, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME), worsened to the point that I became mostly bedbound, I discovered poetry as a way to transform challenging experiences into universal reflections on time, loss, and hope. My journey from those first poems, to self-publishing a Kirkus-praised, #1 Best Selling poetry collection, "Clouds on the Ground" (released November 7th, 2024), and chapbook "WAVES", demonstrates the power of creative expression to find beauty in life's difficult seasons. I currently live in Texas with my husband and our children. Through my life experiences, I bring authentic conversations about resilience, the artistic process, and finding meaning through creative work. My accessible poetry and personal story resonate with listeners who are facing their own challenges, or are seeking creative outlets during difficult times. My interests include writing and reading poetry, listening to music, and spending time with my family.
