One day before Fantastic Voyages: Writing Speculative Fiction comes the Wellington launch of Issue 25 of Blackmail Press. It’s called The Rebel Issue, and among those with poems in the issue who have blogged about the launch are Harvey Molloy, Helen Rickerby and Janis Freegard (who has been having great success with both poems and short stories recently).
I haven’t read the whole issue, but if Harvey’s, Helen’s, and Janice’s poems are any yardstick it will be well worth going to the launch. Here are the brief details – see the blog links above for more:
Blackmail Press presents The Rebel Issue
Please join us for an evening of poetry, which will begin with an open microphone session and be followed by a selection of readings from the current Rebel issue.
Wellington launch: Weds, Sept 16, 2009 – 7.30pm
Upstairs, Thistle Inn, 3 Mulgrave Street, Thorndon, Wellington.
Thanks for that kind mention, Tim. Sometimes I think having work published is like waiting for a bus – you spend ages out in the cold and then three turn up at once!
