In my penultimate Austin recording, I sat down with Claire Vogel Camargo at her home in Austin, Texas. We met after my final meeting with the Austin Haiku Study group. Claire and I talked at length about how food connects us to family, and her haiku brought up memories that led to fund stories and digressions. I hope you enjoy our rambling, free-form conversation.  More of Claire's work You can find information about Claire's book, Iris Opening, here: https://g.co/kgs/QYXzc6 Claire's haiku featured in the International Women's Haiku Festival: https://jenniferhambrick.com/2018/03/09/international-womens-haiku-festival-two-haiku-by-claire-vogel-camargo/ One of Claire's haiku, translated into Chinese, for NeverEnding Story: https://neverendingstoryhaikutanka.blogspot.com/2019/08/butterfly-dream-soft-brush-haiku-by.html Support the podcast I need help with sound editing for episode 4!

Note: The theme music and transitions have changed because the ones I was using from my hosting service are suddenly no longer available. I discovered this at the proverbial 11th hour, so had to make do with new stock sounds. Hopefully that didn't cause too much confusion.
