1997: Tumbling through ways

Tumbling through ways is the 13th collection from the prestigious Creative Writing program at the University of Technology Sydney.

I'm not sure if writers ever learn to write. Writers learn many things to do with writing, like layering time with pages slowly filled... putting unexpected words and ideas near each other to see if they shimmer, pushing an idea beyond the limits of the stars and further still, listening to silence and birds in the gutter and children shouting in the wind, waiting in the chaos of the mind. A lot of writing seems to be about waiting, though in a busy way. – Sue Wolfe, from the Introduction

Cover of UTS Anthology 1997
