We are thrilled to announce the 2024 Overland Neilma Sidney Short Story Prize shortlist. Take a look here to see who our judges chose: https://t.co/iIGixTlAkF
Late to @CallMeSipo, but what a line to have dug up: “it’s in the giving of lit prizes that the cult of the middlebrow seems now to have established itself”! I can see it both ways: the NP must be tons of work,+all 3 pubs have to agree!https://t.co/Vpy7K2kDZb
First, @CallMeSipo on Anne de Marcken's IT LASTS FOREVER AND THEN IT'S OVER and Jonathan Buckley's TELL:
"[...] they are also somewhat safe choices—‘safe’ in the sense they were bound to find a wide audience without the spotlight of a prominent prize."

My latest in @Meanjin - calling for literary prizes to go to more ambitious and difficult books
Huge thanks to @mxcreant for comissioning and helping whip this one into shape!

In today's back-from-hiatus essay @CallMeSipo reflects on the posthumous legacy of Vivian Maier and on the possibility of making her work "available to everyone, away from the necromantic urges of capital accumulation at the expense of a dead artist." https://t.co/Oc2xKN6hkS
