In this episode of the Authors On Mission Podcast, host Danielle Hutchinson sits down with Andrea W. LeDew to discuss her powerful new book Polemics: political poems and prose. Together, they explore how poetry and prose can serve as a time capsule of the past decade, capturing moments of division and offering a plea for unity.
Andrea shares her writing process, the inspiration behind her work, and her upcoming projects—including an audiobook release and a novel inspired by her son’s autism journey. Listeners will also hear practical tips for aspiring writers:
• ✍️ Capture ideas immediately—don’t dismiss fleeting thoughts.
• 🕒 Build a routine—1–2 hours, 3–4 times a week is enough.
• 🌐 Find community—local writing groups provide validation and connection.
This conversation is a reminder that words can bridge divides and inspire hope for a more united future.
