In his foreword to emerge 16, Raoul Fernandes, author of Transmitter and Receiver, says: “The writers in this anthology show such bravery and risk-taking. Sometimes it’s the courage to have a character commit a tragic irreversible act with a gun in a forest. Or... asking a simple question in a prose poem—is my blue your blue?—can be a startling move.”
emerge 16 includes contributions from TWS students currently being mentored by Kevin Chong , Hiromi Goto , JJ Lee , Meredith Quartermain and program director Wayde Compton. New this year are contributions from students who completed the inaugural year of The Writer’s Studio Online program in June 2016 mentored by Eileen Cook , Claudia Cornwall , June Hutton and Fiona Tinwei Lam .
