Episode #38 Sanchari Sur

By Tamara Jong

On today’s Bookish Radio episode, we talk to writer Sanchari Sur about our mutual love of FOLD, what energizes her writing, her early work, her writing process and what she’s working these days. Oh and a heckuva reading midway through the interview.

Sanchari Sur is a 2018 Lambda Literary Fellow. Her work can be found in Room, Toronto Book Award shortlisted The Unpublished City (Book*hug, 2017), Arc Poetry Magazine, Humber Literary Review, Prism International, and elsewhere. She is a PhD candidate in English at Wilfrid Laurier University, and the curator/co-founder of Balderdash Reading Series.
