B. Elizabeth Beck is a poet who writes fiction. Her fifth collection of poetry, Dancing on the Page, was published by Rabbit House Press this year, 2024. She also has a debut collection of short stories published by Accents publishing this year, too.

For those of you who may have heard of Ms. Beck before or you are a Phish Phan, she’s also the author of the Summer Tour Trilogy, which is how I got to know this amazing woman, initially. She’s layered, inspirational, and what I love most is that she writes AND continues to guide others in learning their own voice through poetry and writing.

Elizabeth is the founder of two poetry series: Teen Howl and Poetry at the /ˈtā-bəl/ in Lexington, Kentucky.

It was so hard to edit our conversation down to a typical podcast episode. Elizabeth has SO MUCH to share and offer. Speaking with her feels like coming home to Aunt Karen's and having a mentor and friend all wrapped up in one.
