Small Presses Know Where the Best Australian Stories Are [24.09.2009]
Small presses are frequently being heralded as a fine source for new talent, and each year this is proven with Black Inc's annual collection The Best Australian Stories selecting work from small press publications. This year Meanjin and Sleepers have had some authors selected. Congratulations to Georgia Blain and Brenda Walker, whose stories ‘Intelligence Quotient’ (Vol 68/3) and ‘That Vain Word No’ (Vol 66/4-67/1) respectively have been selected from Meanjin, and to Steven Amsterdam, who's story 'Dry Land' was selected from this year's Age Book of the Year winner Things We Didn't See Coming (from Sleepers).
Previous contributors to the anthology include David Malouf, Kate Grenville, Nam Le, Frank Moorhouse, Peter Goldsworthy, Cate Kennedy and many others.
