Have you ever wanted to learn how to write poetry for children? Or hear Dorothea Mackellar's My Country re-interpreted by indigenous, migrant and bi-lingual poets? Keen to shake hands with Steven Oliver from ABCTV's Black Comedy, bail up a poetry editor, or meet poets from Japan? Canberrans will have the chance to do all this and more at the University of Canberra's Poetry on the Move festival this month.
