Congratulations to the following students, who have had their creative writing selected for publication in the next issue of Toitoi.
- Blake Hurd - poem titled Dolphins
- Bryn Devonald - Medal poem
- Cooper Burgess - flash fiction titled Fine Dining
- Elise Mackay - flash fiction titled Roller Skating
- Porou Rongonui - flash fiction titled The Worst Mistake of My Life
Their stories and poems were selected from a large number of submissions from all over NZ, and the standard was high as usual. To have work picked for publication is an outstanding achievment, so a massive congratulations to these authors.
If you didn't have your writing selected, please don't be too disappointed. Being a writer takes determination and perseverance (trust me, I know!) and I encourage you to keep trying. The editor of Toitoi said they would love to hear from you again. The deadline for Toitoi 29 is on July 7, 2022, so keep writing and RE-writing!
