Poetry Link: Dani Couture's Poetry Fortune Teller

Do you remember the carefully-folded, handmade fortune tellers from your childhood? Under each flap lay a different, extreme fate: "You will be rich and famous," "You will live a hundred years," "You will have 20 children" and so on. Dani Couture – author of Good Meat and the forthcoming collection Sweet (Pedlar Press) – has put a poetic spin on the Fortune Teller. She's created three Poetry Fortune Tellers for National Poetry Month and asks you to "Let the poets guide your next move."

Print the first Fortune Teller, Mortiz, Robertson, Rogers, & Wright, today. The second will be on her site on April 7th and the third on April 21st.

The Great Canadian Writer's Craft Interview: George Murray

This spring, students from Malvern Collegiate Institute's Writer's Craft class conducted interviews with Canadian poets as part of a class project. The interviews will be posted on The Great Canadian Writer's Craft page on Open Book throughout June and July. In this interview, poet George Murray speaks with students Hannah Casey and Rachel London-Wallace.

Hi George, our names are Hannah and Rachel and we are ecstatic to have the opportunity to interview you; you were both of our top choices for this project. We hope you enjoy our selected questions. Thank you for taking the time, cheers.
