poetry readings from the WordSlingers Chicago radio feature

    Janet Kuypers was the first feature at the WordSlingers radio show, on WLUW Radio, 88.7 FM (based in Chicago, but broadcast world-wide via the Internet).

    These are instant recordings from the live radio show, but shortly we will upload recordings of the radio broadcast to this page (currently we only have mp3 audio files of the studio recordings, as well as video from the studio recording of the radio show recording).

    Kuypers also released a chapbook of all of the slated poems she would read for in this feature. All of the poems (read in order) appear in this chapbook, as well as additional poems that were slated to potentially be read as well. The chapbook is called Slinging the Word, in honor of the radio show that hosted her readings..
