“It
was, of course, disappointing that Arts Council England did not choose to look
outwards but, in any case, we were not
defeated, but only strengthened by that
apparent setback, and Interlitq has now regrouped successfully in order to
engage in its essential undertaking—which is to publish the finest
international literature. And, to that end, publication of Interlitq has, for
the time being, migrated to
The
objective of Interlitq is to continue to publish fine literature, in an array
of languages, and on a daily basis, instead of publishing only every three
months which was, in fact, limiting. Let me stress that Interlitq is also
committed to providing a continuous platform for outstanding New Zealand
literature and, to this end, we have on our new site already published work by
NZ writers such as Martha Morseth:
Jane
Seaford:
and
Karen Zelas:
and
we will be publishing a further two poems by Karen Zelas this week, with the
poem “Waiting” being Interlitq’s poem for 30.01.12.
Furthermore,
we are now looking forward to publishing many NZ writers over coming weeks
alongside outstanding artwork by NZ artists.
I
very much hope that you will all continue to enjoy Interlitq, which will continue
to look outwards, to nurture literary talent across the world.”
