Launch of Leaves Literary Journal

Two weeks ago we launched the first edition of Leaves Literary Journal at Red Wheelbarrow Books.  It was a great night. We had about 25 people turn up. Our readers were in fine form, who included Bronwen Manger, Bronwyn Lovell, Initially NO, Stu Hatton, Matt Hetherington and Hoa Pham. They each read selections from their poems in the journal, and other assorted pieces. Red Wheelbarrow books really supports Australian poetry, and it was an honour to launch the journal there. Submissions have been coming in for the second edition, so stay tuned! You can read the journal here.  Submissions are now open by emailing three poems and a short bio to leavesliteraryjournal [at] hotmail [dot] com.
