Two mixed race poets from Saskatchewan walk into a bar...

Actually, we walked into an organic cafe.

Yesterday, I interviewed Fred Wah for Ricepaper. He's quarter Chinese, like me. His father was half CHinese and Scots-Irish and his mom is Swedish. He grew up in Swift Current and Nelson, BC. As you can guess, we had a lot to talk about, ranging from Western Canadian, to poetry and poetry circles, to growing up mixed. It was a nice interview. After the interview, he let me play with his chocolate lab, which was awesome. He is going to help me with a writing project that I've been wanting to do for a while, which is amazing.

I like labs. Whenever I picture having a standard dog, it's a lab. gragathaz is an "upright-ears" person, sadly.
