Ep.70 Either Way You Lose w. Patrick Hunn & Ursula Robinson-Shaw

This week the m*nters chat to Patrick Hunn, whose new book, Either Way You Lose, is out on the 18th of September. Joining Pat is Ursula Robinson-Shaw, who helps to run Sick Leave– the press that is putting out the book. They talk about the short story as a form, the benefits of living in an ugly city, and the realities of working as a small press in 2026. Tim tries and fails to wring Melbourne lit scene gossip from the gathered faithful. Sorry!

Before that, they chat Barnaby, the Hadley/Jones beef, the NSN High court appeal and recent book acquisitions.

Get it where you get it.
