Interviews with Poetry Editors on the Future of Poetry Publishing http://www.argotistonline.co.uk/Interviews%20with%20Poetry%20Editors.htm
In light of the the New Statesman article by Neil Astley, 'Poetry For People', and the vigorous reactions that my blog entry concerning it provoked at The Poem forum I thought it would be interesting to discuss some of the wider implications that Astleys concerns in the article suggest, and how these relate to such matters as: poetry and publishing, and the future of poetry in printed form and on the Internet.

Bennett Jake Berry Andrew Duncan Ken Edwards Tony Frazer Susana Gardner Geoffrey Gatza Rupert Loydell Alan May Douglas Messerli Peter Philpot Michael Rothenberg Martin Stannard
