Episode 180 - Halli Castro, Author and Published Poet

What this episode covers

I'm very excited to share my conversation with Halli Castro, local author and published poet, about transitioning from a reading naysayer to prolific writer, the decision to share her innermost thoughts and feelings surrounding her life with Dystonia in the poetry collection Neuromuscular: A Poetic Exploration of Identity in Dystonia, how the idea to write about space pirates evolved into a Sci-Fi series of short stories called The Acowell Chronicles, her involvement in bringing Disability Book Week to Corpus Christi, and why authors should be mindful of responsible representation in episode 180.
