Larry Smith

from The Downtown Writers Jam · host Solid Listen

Buckle up. You are about to take a walk through the DIY, GenX media landscape of the nineties. Writer Larry Smith, founder of SMITH magazine, and Brad circled around each other for three decades. Until now. Sit back while they talk about boing boing, Mondo2000, Might Magazine, Ms. Magazine, Mother Jones, Alternet, and all the publications that shaped a generation of writers. And, how that inspired Larry to launch the Six-Word Memoirs project with Twitter in 2006. Today, 1.7 million people have contributed stories. (And yes, we touched on his wife, Piper Kerman, and her work in prison reform.) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
