OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode of eMerge Unchained, host Aubrey Green sits down with poet and longtime educator Ken Hada for a conversation shaped by four decades in the classroom. With a firm belief that there’s no such thing as passive learning, Ken reflects on the energy of an engaged audience—whether he’s teaching or reading his work—and what it means to “dance” with the audience.
They talk about finding and owning your voice, not just in performance, but on the page, where it really matters. Ken shares how his early failed fiction fragments revealed themselves as poetry, and why writers don’t always need to know when something is good, but they need to recognize when it isn’t. He emphasizes knowing why you make the choices you do and creating layered work that transcends time, place, and even writer.
So join Aubrey and Ken as they explore voice, craft, and the kind of writing that stays with you.
