Change of Heart, Mandy Sayer , single work prose (p. 12-14)
Wall of Fame, Susan Johnson , single work column
'The world is so vast, history so long and the vanished so countless, a person might quail to consider the living. But an artist, a visual artist intent on including himself in the practice of recording the history of the human story, might narrow his focus so that the universal becomes a few living names symbolising the many, and marks upon a surface become strikes against the infinite.' 
(p. 14-15)
No Worries, Peter Craven , single work column (p. 15-16)
Born of Nightmares, Tim Winton , single work essay

(p. 42-47)
Additional Pleasures, Toni Jordan , single work column
'It's almost like being in my teens again, when the lights dim and a hush falls over the audience. Almost. Back then, I saw two movies every week in a Saturday night double feature with my best friend, without ever checking the schedule. Curtains opened on either side of the screen with a tinny hum. We sat upright in stiff leather chairs or slouched in slung canvas at the front, and at the back of the cinema was a glassed-in smoker’s room, filled with puffing patrons and a dense haze. How anyone could see through that was beyond me.' (Introduction)
(p. 48-49)
Feat of Clay, Harry Windsor , single work review
— Review of Memoir of a Snail Adam Elliot , 2023 single work film/TV ;
'SOMETIMES IT FEELS AS THOUGH every Australian film is a coming-of-age story. Inside and Memoir of a Snail were two of the best at this year’s Melbourne International Film Festival, and, though they couldn’t be more different, each generates pathos and tension from the awful vulnerability of children shunted into the world of adults' (Introduction)
(p. 56-59)
