Johanna Featherstone [Australia]:
The current project we are undertaking, in partnership with Corban & Blair, has had myself and the Red Room fellows, inviting poets we have previously commissioned in part Red projects, to allow us use of their poems on these cards. As we had no funds to pay the participating poets to write a new poem or, at this stage, to pay them for a second use of their poem, poets had the opportunity to decline. So, in the case of these cards, Red Room is promoting the poets work out of a devotion to quality Australian poetry and a we have a commitment to providing poets with new audiences and new modes of publication.
