Mickie Kennedy on Entrepreneurship, Poetry & Worth Burning

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Mickie Kennedy, a successful entrepreneur and award-winning poet whose career bridges business and art. By day, Mickie is an expert in helping small businesses, authors, and startups increase visibility and credibility through tier-1 press release distribution. By night—and always at heart—he is a poet and gifted writer. Mickie is a Pushcart Prize nominee and Pablo Neruda Prize finalist, and the author of the 2025 poetry collection Glandscapes. He is now preparing for the release of his upcoming book, Worth Burning (February 2026), published by Black Lawrence Press. In 2024, we explored Mickie’s business acumen. This time, the conversation turns inward and creative as we dive into the poetics of it all—writing, craft, inspiration, and how creativity and entrepreneurship inform each other. 🎙️ Enjoy this thoughtful and creative conversation.
