Do you work in ? Then you are probably doing unpaid overtime, facing structural barriers to success and earning less than you’re worth!

@meaa is collecting data on pay & conditions in the book industry, have your say here:

🌿 So pleased to be on the shortlist and have my work included in the FUTURES story anthology with @glimmer_press - a small press based on Kaurna land in my old hometown Adelaide. Great to be among some familiar names on the list!

What makes a writer happy? A great series in The Guardian asks writers what brings them joy these days. This response from Helen Garner...wow.
Reading it makes me think that what would make me happy is being able to write like this.

This memoir! 'Unknown'. An important, well written, inspiring, challenging, change-inducing gift to Australia and the world from Akuch Kuol Anyieth. From war-torn South Sudan, to Kenya’s Kakuma Refugee Camp, to Australia this 📕 will break your heart but also make it beat. It throws out a challenge to all Australians (and people of other nations) to think about how we can better support and welcome people who have experienced inter-generational trauma. It also throws out another challenge: how to finish it in one sitting because you won’t want to put it down. Real people, real places and experiences, a really worthwhile read. Published by Text Publishing.

Feet may fail
On the surface
of the waters
Yet let me walk
Amongst the waves
To test my doubt
Against my faith

Travelling around recently I came across this street sign so I popped back with a copy of its namesake (although not the suburb the book or album is named after).
It's been two years since this little collection came forth and I am still super proud of it.
Now I'm waiting on @solkyri latest release.
