	Happening now: Creative Writing: Theory beyond practice, editors Nigel Krauth and Tess Brady UWA Press New Writing Series, series editor Terri-ann White Creative Writing: Theory beyond practice edited by Nigel Krauth and Tess Brady See review by nike bourke in the October 2007 issue of TEXT Creative Writing: Theory beyond practice sets the agenda for creative writing studies in the next ten years. Here writers, teachers and theorists identify theoretical underpinnings for creativity and writing in a broad spectrum of experience - architecture, psychology, ecology, philosophy, physiology, love, morality, sculpture and the body. This new research lays innovative foundations for insight into the nature of writing. A book for practitioners, teachers and students, it prepares a way for understanding the frameworks in which creative writing takes place in the early twenty-first century. If you found TEXT useful over the last ten years, you will find this new work a significant step beyond TEXT.

After liaising with program coordinators in Australian universities to source potential manuscripts for the New Writing series, she is now interested in encouraging writers who may not yet be finished with their projects to consider sending details for future submissions. UWA Press has established rigorous guidelines to ensure a high standard for the list. This includes sourcing novels and shorter prose from postgraduate creative writing courses in universities across Australia, where exciting new works from emerging and established writers have been produced over the last decade or so. By introducing this series, UWA Press is recognising the role of Australian universities in nurturing and supporting writers, and contributing to the continuing production of Australian writing. The two titles chosen to launch the New Writing Series are A New Map of the Universe by Annabel Smith and Cusp by Josephine Wilson: For information on A New Map of the Universe see <http://www.uwapress.uwa.edu.au/titles/index/a_new_map_of_the_universe> For information on Cusp see <http://www.uwapress.uwa.edu.au/titles/index/cusp> In September 2006, The Concerto Inn by Jo Gardiner will be released, and there are four more titles in the pipeline.
