I'm to be published . . . well an artwork of mine, originally seen in the 'Detours' exhibition, Aloft and Aloof, has found its way onto the front cover of a low volume anthology of new Adelaide writing called Small City Tales of Strangeness and Beauty.
This is only the cover concept and it may change and it needs an 'and' between the names of the two editors.
About the book - From the publishers Wakefield Press which operates out of The Parade, Norwood here in Adelaide.

‘In these stories, poems and photographs with Adelaide as its theme, the city sighs with shifting sands. Its mornings swirl with readdressed mail and untended gardens, its afternoons seethe with melting bitumen and its nights crackle with heat, breakdown, the attrition of marriages. The city disgorges stories in the way waste yields coloured glass, not as a collector’s item but as something being halted from passing out of memory.’ - From the foreword by Brian Castro. Contributors include: Nicholas Jose, Jude Aquilina, Rachel Hennessy, Anne Bartlett, Carol LeFevre, Jill Jones, Ken Bolton, Graham Rowlands and John Tranter, writing as Mark Pallas.
