Several decades ago or more when art was thought of as a liminal flicker at best of North Queensland culture in the anthropological sense, a handful of writers were trying to establish creative writing as a presence. Writing and publishing is a mostly exclusively metropolitan creative industry, so writers often struggle to be published and read outside urban areas. There are still challenges to being a writer in North Queensland—as described in Elizabeth Smyth’s 2016 piece for Meanjin Quarterly, “Sunday Bldy Sunday”. |
