I was fortunate enough to get the gig as an editor of the forthcoming UTS Writers' Anthology, so it's definitely shaping up to be a busy summer.
The 2006 edition will be launched at the Sydney Writers' Festival in May next year, which is very exciting. It's daunting, however, to think that in such a brief timeframe a bunch of unsorted manuscripts will have to be transformed into a book.
The anthology - which takes a different title each year - is a published collection of prose and poetry by students in the writing programme at Sydney's University of Technology (UTS).
The 2005 edition was called Nine Tenths Below, a reference to the nine-tenths of any story which remain submerged below the obvious surface of the words. It's available from the venerable Gleebooks and can be shipped worldwide.
The 2004 edition, Loose Lips, and 2003's Taste are also still available.
