RALLY TO SAVE MEANJIN MAGAZINE
Thursday 11 Sep 9am
Outside the Melbourne University Publishing office, 715 Swanston St, Carlton.
A number of Australian writers and editors will speak in support of this vital cultural institution.
I started my career there with very little knowledge, almost no connections. I met Tess, a wonderful editor (aa everyone edited by her knows). I edited Jess Knight and got a speech of Alexis Wright’s ready to publish. It carries a history of oz writers. It’s a waste.
Exclusive: Australia’s second-oldest literary journal, Meanjin, is being shut down today for "financial" reasons, Crikey can reveal.
