Tassie Writers' E-letter

Asked many years ago why she's bothered co-ordinating Hobart's Republic Bar & Cafe Readings since - well, for however long it's been - Liz Winfield replied: 'Things are pretty crook if I'm the only one around putting my hand up to organise regular poetry readings! Makes you wonder doesn't it?'

Nevertheless: cometh the hour, cometh the woman. As well as the Republic Readings on the first Sunday of the month at the Republic Bar in Elizabeth Street, North Hobart, Liz co-ordinates both the bimonthly publication The Poets Republic, a double-sided A3 poetry broadsheet, and an e-letter of Tasmanian literary news and events: Tassie Writers' E-letter.
