I’m the round one judge in Meanjin‘s Tournament of Books (short stories) this year, which is so exciting. I’ve always wanted to be asked. My judge’s notes have just gone up, on Katherine Susannah Prichard’s ‘Happiness’ vs Tom Cho’s ‘Today on Dr Phil’. Check it out here, and continue to follow along with the ToB, it’s lots of fun and hopefully you’ll discover some authors and stories along the way.

Oh good for you Angela … but can you point me to the list of short stories being considered? I took part in the suggesting some but can’t see where the final list is?
Hi Sue, I’m not sure if there is a list available or whether the contenders are just revealed as the rounds open?
Last year the list was available at the beginning and they had a sort of tournament chart that tracked the progress (though it wasn’t fully maintained as I recollect). It would be good to know but if that’s not how it is, I guess that’s how it is!!
The list of stories is at http://meanjin.com.au/articles/post/welcome-to-the-meanjin-tournament-of-books-2012/
And thanks for your kind words about my piece, Angela!
Thanks Tom … much appreciate the list. I don’t find the Meanjin site easy to navigate … not sure why that is.
