Editorial - Issue 10:02

Welcome to issue 10:02 of Perilous Adventures. This issue’s highlights include wonderful new stories by Felicity Castagna, Michael Wilding and Siall Waterbright, a new poem by John Ryan, reviews, an interview with acclaimed new writer Belinda Jeffrey, and an in-depth critical article on autobiography by Natalie Sutherland, drawing on her MA (Creative Writing) research. We look forward to publishing more work in this vein in forthcoming issues.

In this issue we also begin a new series - classic works. This month, we bring you F Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby; after you've read the book, you can join a free online book club discussion of the novel at Olvar Wood onLine (OWL).

warm regards
