First Draft: A Dialogue on Writing

Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer has been writing and sharing a poem a day since

2006—a practice that especially nourished her after the death of her teenage son in

2021. Her daily poems can be found on her blog, A Hundred Falling Veils, or a curated

version (with optional prompts) on her daily audio series, The Poetic Path, available with

the Ritual app. Her poetry collection Hush won the Halcyon Prize. Naked for Tea was a

finalist for the Able Muse Book Award. Her most recent collections are All the Honey

and The Unfolding. In January 2024, she became the first poet laureate for Evermore,

helping others through this platform to explore grief, bereavement, wonder, and love

through the voice of poetry. She is the co-hosts of a podcast on creative process called

Emerging Form.

This episode was recorded live at TACAW in Basalt, Colorado.
