Gregory Crosby is the author of Said No One Ever (2021, Brooklyn Arts Press) and Walking Away From Explosions in Slow Motion (2018, The Operating System). He's an incredible poet, gifted educator, and super fun to have a conversation with. I took his Brooklyn Poets class on the sonnet back in 2022 which was truly one of my fondest poetry memories. We touch on all sorts of topics in this conversation, such as Las Vegas, Twitter, and the murky history of the term "flash fiction". But mostly the conversation centers around Gregory's journey as a writer, his work as an educator, and his approach (and enviable confidence!) to writing.
