On this episode, Benjamin Gorman gabs with Zaji Cox, author of PLUMS FOR MONTHS, about ballet, organizing ideas, bike rides by sewage treatment plants, and getting to have a launch party at Powell’s with Lidia Yuknavitch (on May 15th). So, you know, normal writer stuff.

Today’s secret word is: Portland-y
