'Exploring creative writing with writing colleagues rarely disappoints. That is the result of the comradery brought about by mutual joys and common challenges. You get this kind of thing in every field of human endeavour, but creative writing asks us to navigate between our emotional life and our analytical life, magnifying the sense of connection. This magnification is the result of valuing both our feelings and our observations, of our efforts to display the intangible in writing which, by nature, is tangible. In doing so, the navigation we each and all undertake between the incorporeal and the corporeal encourages our secular communion.' (Editorial introduction)
