First Nations Writers Festival 2023: Short Story Award Winners Greater Pacific

From First Nations Writers Festival 2023 - the Short Story Award winners with their magnificent contributions to literature in the Greater Pacific. Start at the beginning and read through. Start at the final story, and move to the first. Dip into the middle. You will laugh and cry. You will return again and again to re-read some parts because the stories reverberate in the heart and mind. Keep it close because your fingers keep reaching for the book to check a memory.

The whole arc of life, from the hidden villages to the townships, to the magic of butterflies and the enchantment of the singing dogs, and the exploration of love, friendship, family and cultural challenges. Stories so true, so real, they could only be written from the Greater Pacific. Congratulations to each author, and thank you for sharing. It is an Honour for First Nations Writers Festival to curate this Anthology.
