JAAM literary journal is delighted to announce that issue 30, 2012, will be guest edited by poet and academic Anna Jackson, assisted by a small editorial team.

Anna’s most recent collection of poetry was Thicket, published in July by Auckland University Press. She lectures in English literature at Victoria University of Wellington. As well as poetry, she also writes fiction from time to time, and her story ‘When We were Bread’ was recently highly commended in The Long and the Short of It competition, in the long (over 10,000 words) category.

JAAM considers poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction, essays, photography and other artwork. There is no set theme for JAAM 30
