1
y separately published work icon Song-Cycle of the Birds : Lake Macquarie Norman Talbot , Dangar : Leading Light Press , 1998 Z1051348 1998 single work poetry

'Published before Catchfire took its final form and name, this elegant folio poem was listed as from Leading Light Press, a name that seemed to give too pious an impression!

With the poet's own drawings, the song-cycle had won the Mattara Illustrated Poetry Prize in 1998. Sybil Smith's computer-generated birds add an extra, subtle element to the quatrains evoking the life of Lake Macquarie from dawn through to midnight.' (Publication summary)

y separately published work icon Black Beginnings : A Creation Fable Ron Vickress , Dangar : Catchfire Press , 1998 Z1051358 1998 single work short story

'Set in the day of creation on which the birds were created and decked out in their finery, this story tells how the last bird to turn up impudently attempts to wheedle colours and combinations out of the Great Earth Spirit, even though it has been offered only a choice of black or white.' (Publication summary)

y separately published work icon Vintage Crop : A Story from the Hunter Valley Zeny Giles , Dangar : Catchfire Press , 1999 Z1051354 1999 single work short story

'This delightful short story had been one of the prizewinners in the ABC Radio National Books and Writing competition in 1995. It not only evokes a Greek migrant response to the Hunter Valley wineries, from an amusingly unsympathetic perspective, but also includes an excellent recipe for the vine leaf rolls that the story focuses upon.' (Publication summary)
