A sequence works in a way a collection never can.
George Murray

Even the people who have had success and made money writing these books of fiction seem to feel the need to pretend it's no big deal, or part of a natural progression from poetry to fiction, but often it's really just about the money, the perceived prestige.
George Murray

Humour is a fine line to walk in poetry, as in fiction. I just think it's harder to write. It's harder to keep the respect of the reader too.
George Murray

I am certainly suffering from a modicum of performance anxiety.
George Murray

I am still interested in the long or serial poem, but have written a few smaller things. I may start sending to journals again in a year or so... that's about it.
George Murray

I think, for me, humour needs to be used like a strong spice - sparingly.
George Murray

I wanted to rock back and forth between myth and distant futures, yesterday, today, and tomorrow. It felt a bit like prophecy and a bit like storytelling.
George Murray

I was writing notes, but not composing poems. The Hunter began to develop out of this fragmented process.
George Murray

I'm not interested in being easy anymore. Readable, yes. Easy, no.
George Murray

I've often entertained paranoid suspicions about my fridge and what it's been doing to my poetry when I'm not looking, but I never even considered that my fan was thinking about me.
George Murray

In fact, in some ways, I actually feel much more confident about the quality of Carousel than I do about The Cottage Builder's Letter: probably because of its cohesive nature.
George Murray
