Doug and Alek are joined by Three Rivers poet and Watershed Voice Showcase opener Debbie Allen to discuss her upbringing in “old school” Philadelphia, her creative process, using poetry to work through pain and trauma, and the trials and tribulations of being a moderator for Three Rivers, Michigan Area Information.

You can find Debbie’s artist page on Facebook, and her books are available for purchase on Amazon. Keep Your Voice Down’s theme is “Howling at the Moon” by D Fine Us, and this week’s outro music is “Anywhere” by Lightmuzik.

Keep Your Voice Down is a podcast featuring fellow Central Michigan University journalism grads and best friends Alek Haak-Frost and Doug Sears, Jr.
