In this interview, I chat with Martha Barnette about Friends with Words, her interest in words and word origins, hosting A Way With Words, what a call-out show is and how it works, her favorite questions she is asked on her show, writing this memoir, her title, and much more.
Martha's recommended reads are:
Orbital by Samantha Harvey
Clear by Carys Davies
Enough is Enuf by Gabe Henry
