​We now have 29 interviews published in our feature in which Vandana Parashar asks poets we’ve published to share their thoughts and practices about writing one-line poems! This series has become a trove of the various ways poets approach this sub-genre! We are going to take a short break from these interviews but will be sharing some more in the future. Enjoy!
