Dave Garbutt, postcard legend

On Monday, November 8, 2021, we caught up with Dave Garbutt via Zoom to talk about his experience with the Poetry Postcard Fest. Dave lives in Dornach, Switzerland, and he discussed his postcard method, spontaneity and read three of his 2021 postcard poems. See his Medium page here. See his 2021 postcard poems here as a pdf.
