Touch the Donkey supplement: new interviews with McElroy, Martin, McCarthy + Baus

Anticipating next week's release of the second issue of Touch the Donkey (a small poetry journal), why not check out the interviews that have appeared over the past few weeks with first issue contributors Gil McElroy, Camille Martin, Pattie McCarthy and Eric Baus?

Also: there's a new self-profile, "On starting a new poetry journal," newly posted over at Open Book: Ontario.

The second issue features new writing by Julie Carr, Catherine Wagner, Susanne Dyckman, Pearl Pirie, David Peter Clark, Susan Holbrook, Phil Hall and Robert Swereda. And, once the new issue appears, watch the blog over the subsequent weeks for interviews with a variety of the issue's contributors!

And of course, copies of the first issue are still available, with new writing by Camille Martin, Eric Baus, Hailey Higdon, rob mclennan, Norma Cole, Elizabeth Robinson, Rachel Moritz, Gil McElroy and Pattie McCarthy.

Really, why not subscribe?

The journal now even has its own Facebook group. How is it possible to resist?
