Ask
Randa Abdel-Fattah is among the panel tonight on ABC1’s Q&A. Q&A is the program where you can ask the questions. Go to the program website, register and send it in your questions. Other panellists include Crikey founder Stephen Mayne and Tony Burke, (opposition spokesman on immigration prior to becoming the now federal minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry).
Meanwhile, Aidan Chambers asks what, or who, are literary prizes are for? Chambers’ book This Is All narrowly missed on winning. But it was the judges comments, not the result, got under his skin. Chambers’ concerns, and the subsequent comments are well worth a look.
