Emerging Melbournian writers enter eBook market | Castlemaine ...

kindle-6-wifi-450x427Six emerging Melbourne writers feature in a collection of short stories it?s all about the writing, free to download on Kindle between Monday 21 and Thursday 25 January.

it?s all about the writing is an eclectic collection of sixteen thought-provoking short stories cross fiction genres including Young Adult, Science Fiction, Literary, Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Family, Humour, Mental Health and Multiculturalism. There?s a little Memoir and Creative Non-Fiction and a few other pieces that refused to be classified so easily. Call them what you will, there?s something for everyone.

You won?t be disappointed.

Editor and contributor Emanuel Cachia won the 2011 Melton Short Story Competition, was Highly Commended in the 2010 competition and the 2010 Henry Lawson Literary Awards and was on the short listing panel for the 2012 Ada Cambridge Prize for a Biographical Short Story. He is a freelance editor, manuscript appraiser, book producer, workshop facilitator, aspiring literary agent and, when time allows, an avid gamer. His feature articles, short stories, reviews and poems have been published in five anthologies, eight magazines and four websites, not that anyone is counting, and on his blog at www.emanuelcachia.blogspot.com. He is studying a Bachelor of Communications and dedicates his writing to his wife and two children, who mean worlds to him.

Craig Henderson has written several prize-winning short stories, notably the joint winner of the 2012 Trung Sisters Creative Arts Competition, one of six winners in the 2012 National Year of Reading Learn to Read Writing Competition, and highly commended in the 2012 Ada Cambridge Prize and Melton Short Story competitions for 2010, 2011 and 2012. His work has also been published in Offset magazine and various other magazines and websites. He has always been fascinated by the power of the written word to explain what common sense cannot, is studying Professional Writing and Editing part-time and is a full-time child wrangler.

Antonio Iannella began his writing journey after experiencing a near-death stroke while holidaying in Vietnam with his wife and three young children. A musician, songwriter and music producer for over twenty-five years, he predominately writes non-fiction tales exploring the challenges stroke survivors face. His first manuscript, Saigon Siren, is a heartfelt memoir intimately sharing his painful rehabilitation, told with honesty, love, passion and glorious Aussie humour. Antonio?s plan for 2013 is for Saigon Siren to be published in conjunction with the release of The Lion Tamers debut album, Lost Translation, which he is writing and recording in his Melton recording studio, Studio four99.

I?m Kim Cook, and I?m genderqueer with a side dish of fabulous. People stare at me in public because they can?t figure out my gender and because I have the fashion sensibility of a child rummaging through a box of crayons. I like chocolate and rainbows and writing fantasy novels in second person. I hate boxes and non- accepting people and having to conform to anything save correct Australian English. I?m a Professional Writing and Editing student based in Melbourne, Australia and am currently working on a novel, a novella,various short stories and a play script involving characters who are some flavour of queer. My preference is to write about the lives and experiences of lesbian, transgender and non-binary characters, but also about abuse, mental illness and living with disabilities. My first anthology, Crooked Words, will be available as an e-book in February 2013.

Tuan Ho is just another human who lives on planet Earth and enjoys doing fun things like feeding ducks, cycling like it?s the end of the world, eating delicious food and, most of all, writing. He often stumbles upon inspiration while sitting in silence, listening to the stillness of life, or enjoying a relaxing shower. Other stories strike him like lightning.

A random collection of cells, sinew, nerve endings and grey matter came together to form a consciousness of infinite possibility and wonder. It taught itself to read, write and speak in a beautifully lyrical cacophony of sound and meaning. Then it started drinking too much sugary drinks and playing too many video games. Its name is now Joshua Holland and it resides somewhere in the ichor of the internet.
