Poets are known to be delicate flowers, ill-equipped to handle the
harsh realities other creative types take in their stride (deadlines, having a job, “constructive” feedback etc.). In this talk, one such delicate flower, aka Alice Allan, will heal your relationship to criticism through the power of her words, just like Mary Oliver does in that one poem about geese.
