Frances McCue Reviews Force Field

April 23, 2014
Ryukan

Frances McCue is not only reading at the 2nd Cascadia Poetry Festival at the closing reading, but also has turned in a fine review of the Force Field anthology of BC women poets.

Force Field

Force Field

Excerpt: “Touring the book was a pleasure. The collection of poems is arranged in alphabetical order by the poet’s last names — the fairest way of doing things, I believe—and each of the seventy-seven poets is represented with a photograph, a bio and several pages of verse.

Barry McKinnon Interview (from July 2015)

Paul: You know, you moved up here and one of the first things you did as a teacher in Prince George – was it UNBC at the time when you moved here – the University of Northern British Columbia?
Barry: No, it was the College of New Caledonia.
Paul: And you were teaching English in a welding class?
BM: Yup, it was a technical school. We moved into a technical school before they built the college.
PN: And this is 1969?
