Launching Voiceworks magazine tonight

I’m launching the latest issue of Voiceworks magazine tonight at Bella Union Bar at the Trades Hall (corner of Lygon and Victoria Streets, Carlton). The gig goes from 6-8:30.

Voiceworks provided me with my second ever poem publication and one of my earlier short fiction publications. There are a few lit journals in Australia that I have particular affection for and Voiceworks is one of them. It’ll be good to hang at a Voiceworks gig again.

P.S. Here’s how my launch speech begins:

Whitney Houston once sang: “I believe the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way.”

Learning to love youth arts is the greatest love of all.

Edit: Coming soon-ish… my full launch speech.
