Bonus for Non-U.S. Poetry Postcard Fest Participants

June 18, 2024
Ryukan
We’ve asked the non-U.S. participants (of whom there are 23 so far) to see if they would like to have their addresses out there for folks who want to send bonus cards. The logic is that it takes a long time for cards to get to Europe and elsewhere, even to Canada, so a little extra postcard love can go a long way. If you know of poets outside the U.S. who might appreciate a summer of writing and receiving poetry postcards, please let them know about year 18 of the Poetry Postcard Fest.

Non-US countries represented so far in 2024:

Australia

Austria

Canada

Czechia

France

Great Britain

Ireland

Netherlands

Thank you for being a postcard poet!

    Yes, I realized the looong way postcards take to get to Europe only after I had submitted my email address. I live in Germany and would love to receive poetry postcards! What do I have to do to be included?
    Best wishes

    There are 3 of us who are living full time in Baja CA, Mexico who are participating. We have U.S. addresses for our mail.

    I’d be happy to add a couple of non-US postcard poets to my list. In the past I sent out cards First to the poets in far off lands, no matter what their number was on my list. Sign me up!

Barry McKinnon Interview (from July 2015)

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?
BM: Yeah, 1969. But in that first year here we taught out of the high school. We’d start teaching at three in the afternoon after the high school was out, so we were a night school. We were kind of interlopers. The high school teachers thought, “oh, here are these smarty pants academics coming in and taking over the functions that we’ve provided!”
