*Book Launch* FLOAT: an Anthology of New Writings from Melbourne & Beyond

Let these words carry you away…

Dream. Drift. Derive. Flâneur. Flotsam. Wander. Disconnect.

What helps you stay afloat?

What rises to the surface when you let all else fall away?

Can you describe a moment in which ‘lost’ is really ‘found’?

In this anthology of dreamy new writings by emerging writers and participants of Words of a Feather & Provocative Inklings workshops and events, you’ll find short stories, flash fiction, poetry, and creative non-fiction to move you, lift you, and lead you into new and familiar worlds.
