ZW 08 Countdown

After a slow start, the entries are piling up. We're seeing many new names which means a big thank you to all of our friends who've passed the word on. Carol Amos (NWG Inc President) has the task of anonymising (I can never pronounce this non-word) all the entries and then it's over to myself, Lil Scully (former NWG Inc President) and Lyn Leerson (FAW Parramatta President) to select up to thirty pieces for publication in ZineWest 2008.

As soon as that's done we'll put up a list and invite those writers to attend editing workshops if they can. (It is a painless procedure aimed at giving writers a chance to fix up any little mistakes themselves rather than have the editors doing it.) Meanwhile we'll forward the entries (unedited, unnamed) to our judges at the Writing and Society Research Group at University of Western Sydney.

Good luck
Sue Crawford
Editor ZineWest

I was wondering if there was any news regarding people who will be published? Thanks!
