  • Mumblings from Munchkinland 14

    Mumblings from Munchkinland 14

    LABOURS OF LOVE As predicted, it has been a while since the last Mumblings -- three and a half years, in fact. Numerous factors have conspired to delay this issue and most of these will become evident as you read. One which will not occurred late last year and caused me to consider rewriting much of what I had ready by then. But labours of love cannot be denied and I've decided to save the bad news for the next issue. For now, without further ado, I give you...a brief aside. If you get a feeling of deja vu whilst reading this issue, don't be surprised. The issue before last (#12) opened with the birth of a baby, continued with a trip report (of sorts) featuring an On-line conference in Sydney, included material on early Aussie fanhistory, ran some letters, and ended with scenes of Thylacon, the sf convention in Hobart. Over the past few years, all of the above has happened again, as you will see. In order of importance, we begin with a real labour of love. The new baby, Lauren Aphra Nelson-Lee, was born on October 8, 1998. That's her on the cover, of course, and opposite*. Cute, ain't she? She's a great kid and Ella is chuffed to be a big sister. The circumstances of their births were quite different. Lauren's actually occurred pretty much according to the "plan" we'd had in mind for Ella's -- inasmuch as these things can be planned. We did plan the support crew for the birth.

Back then the awards list would have been much shorter, not containing categories for Anthology, Collection, or Illustrated Work, and certainly not our newish novellas! The Golden Aurealis has come and gone, as has the Sara Douglass Book Series Award (which we do hope to run again—perhaps in 2018. This year we saw over 800 entries, with high numbers of electronic submission, holding consistent with previous years in all areas.

Slatter/Sourdough and Other Stories/3 Abstract The mosaic novel – with its independent „story-tiles‟ linking together to form a complete narrative – has the potential to act as a reflection on the periodic resurfacing of unconscious memories in the conscious lives of fictional characters. This project is an exploration of the mosaic text as a fictional analogue of involuntary memory. These concepts are investigated as they appear in traditional fairy tales and engaged with in this thesis‟s creative component, Sourdough and Other Stories (approximately 80,000 words), a mosaic novel comprising sixteen interconnected „story-tiles‟. Traditional fairy tales are non-reflective and conducive to forgetting (i.e. anti-memory); fairy tale characters are frequently portrayed as psychologically two-dimensional, in that there is no examination of the mental and emotional distress caused when children are stolen/abandoned/lost and when adults are exiled.
