Hackpacker just sent me a copy of the fiction issue of the (Australian) Big Issue where he takes his rightful place amongst the short fictionistas with his story Held Breath.
I thought I was going to miss it, not being there to collect my issue and all, so I am eternally grateful. Its fantastic to see this fabulous story in print, all taut and neat and beautifully written. And it made me cry. Again. I mean this in a good way. As The Troggs would say, Hackpacker, I think you move me.
And how good is it that the Big Issue did a short fiction edition? Well done!
P.S. Hackpacker also sent me a guide to finding all the Deuchars I want in Edinburgh. Beer and excellent short fiction. Can you conceive of a better package?
Thanks!
