Greetings and welcome to WORDTheatre Weekly: The Short Story Podcast where great authors and actors meet! I’m your host, Cedering Fox, WORDTheatre’s Founder & Artistic Director.
Today we offer a poem and a story from our 2023 event “Honor: A Literary Tribute to our Veterans in their Words”. The poem, WindSong, was penned by William Lang, a veteran, and it was performed by Zahn McClarnon. The story, “Bitter Tea” by Elaine Little, also a veteran author, was performed by Sharon Stone.
