Interview with a poet
Hi,
We have another interview up for grabs too - this time it's a poet called John O'Donohue, whose book, Conamara Blues, is published on Nov 8th.
As per normal, can you post any questions you want me to ask below (should start to see the first few interview responses up within the next couple of weeks too. And once we get some face-to-face interviews, I'll start offering them out to you too, so keep suggesting authors for me to approach for you)
Cheers
Emily
Are you with us or against us?
I haven't heard of this writer, but in relation to setting up other interviews, I'd love a one-to-one with Will Self
Is there anywhere that we can read any of his work?
Who are his favorite authors? How did he get his break in the publishing world?
Sorry, that was a question for emily, not the poet in question....
As with previous author, I've never heard of this bloke but how about:
Who's you favourite footballer?
where do you get your inspiration from?
Have you ever written a poem about a porcupine? If not, do you intend to?
Do you believe that your convictions as a priest helped you become a poet. Or do you believe your writing helped you become a priest or at least sustains you in your vocation.
