3:AM: Please tell us about Red Leaves / 紅葉.
Kirk Marshall: Red Leaves / 紅葉 proceeds as a creative channel through which I might facilitate a dialogue about the virtues of experimental or unconventional writing – prose and poetry which consciously and vocally circumnavigates the pro forma of most Australian cultural magazines. Red Leaves / 紅葉 is basically a representation of my personal dissidence with the country’s lack of opportunities for stylistically deconstructivist fiction and poetics, because its development prevails in parallel to the development of my own publishing history. Every time a short story – either of mine or a friend of mine – is meted out an unreasonable rejection due to its challenging content or voice, Red Leaves / 紅葉 works to encourage writers of similar pursuits to submit their material our way!
And much more…
