Replying to @seekingsol
I was recently shortlisted for a short story competition at the @willylitfest, my first. I was thrilled and it felt like a win, and more so when I received a commendation. It wasn't my best story, and I'm encouraged to enter again and others. Good for CV for publishers

Oh hey, it's official. I'm going to be the Program Director of @willylitfest for 2023. If you've got a book coming out, and live within reach of Boon Wurrung Country (esp. Hobsons Bay/Naarm's inner-west) get in touch. booksandpublishing.com.au/arโ€ฆ
