Wow!
I just came across your site today by accident, having
Google'd myself just for the fun of it. And then to
find a great review of a fiction hypertext piece I did
four years ago at university! I fished around a bit
on the site and was very impressed with the excellent
design and content. There really isn't a forum for hypertext
literature today, so I was glad to see a sharp-looking
site that publishes and reviews this kind of work. Thanks!

I
just came across your website and began reading one
of the publications. I have to congratulate Gregory
Paul Mineeff for writing such a wonderful piece on Italy.
I too had similar experiences when I travelled to Rome,
and the imagery he used to detail his emotions brought
many memories to the surface. A wonderful read. |

I've
just discovered your site (from a google search for
online journals in Australia). I read 'I'll Make This
Knife Talk' by Felix Cheong from your November 2002
issue. I think it's an extraordinary, exhilarating poem
and I congratulate you and him on it. I'll definitely
be revisiting your site on a regular basis. |

I've
had a chance to have a look at November's dotlit. Many
thanks for putting me up in dotlit. It's my first on-line
short story, though I've had a few poems in electronic
journals, so it's a new experience - and a nice one.
The format and look is great. Good luck with it again
next year. |

Hello-
I'd
just like to thank dotlit for publishing my poem "Don't
Go." It's always wonderful to see a treasured work
in print for all to see and this is my first experience
of being published 'online!' Thanks again |

I'd
like to congratulate you on the online publication -
I enjoy it very much. The inclusion of Bronwyn Lea's
work last issue led me to buy Flight Animals,
and I thought it was a stunning book of poetry.

I
just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart
for giving me the opportunity to build my short story
portfolio. Without snowflakes at dotlit
and dots at other e-zines I doubt that any publisher
would have taken risks with my story.
I'm
delighted to tell you that Cold River, my book,
is now available in the below electronic versions. From
July 2002, Cold River will bookmark and observe
the 22nd anniversary of a daring escape across the Iron
Curtain. Jozef's only regret is not finishing this story
earlier.

book is like having an old itch finally scratched.'

I
am interested in writing that handles the surfaces of
experience in an innovative way. These can be the surfaces
of individual experience, the surfaces of cultural experience
or the surfaces of language itself. Or surfaces of flower
itself in the context of Lea's ideas.
Your
journal brings together work in a powerful format. Pieces
that interact interestingly when placed side by side.
Not work of one particular school to the exclusion of
another but always with an eye/ear/heart toward challenging
work.
Bronwyn
Lea's poetry is a must read for one and all of us.
As
always, commission accomplished with a gusto! |

to the second issue of dotlit:
Dear
Editors,
I was surprised, though pleased, to discover that the
Literature Fund recognises the electronic publication
(via dotlit) of my CIRCUS
book of poems as being equivalent to a print publication
of the same for the purposes of grant applications. It
makes sense, especially for the publication of poetry
where there is so little being published by major publishers.
Electronic publication of poetry may be one way in which
the form survives, in Australia at least, into the future.
Though one always hopes that major print publishers will
once again embrace poetry as a significant and culturally
valuable artform. |

After
nearly a decade lecturing in Creative Writing at QUT,
wouldn't you just know that I find Philip and Donna
are producing student stories on dotlit
the minute I leave. Arrrgh!!! That's the way it falls,
I guess. Anyway, as one writer to another, heartiest
congratulations to all who have contributed to your
amazing e-zine and I hope that you go on to even greater
greatness. Well .... You know what I mean!! Congrats. |

the editors and student team from the Creative Writing
Section who have created this exciting new electronic
publication. It is another example of the commitment of
the Creative Writing Discipline and the School to both
develop and support local writing excellence, and to expand
its national and international links. I look forward to
further issues and wish dotlit
every success. |

I
just took a look at the draft version of your new on-line
journal, dotlit. How very
impressive, both from a literary and a graphic point-of-view.
The writing is compelling and expressive, without a loss
of clarity. The design is engaging and very user friendly.
Your students and colleagues (and you!) deserve a lot
of credit. Congratulations. |

The
first edition of dotlit is
a truly wonderful achievement both in terms of content
and production values. I'm particularly pleased to note
your commitment to developing hypertext and multi-media
work as the characteristics of the Net can be (and are
being) used creatively to forge new kinds of narrative
experience. I hope to watch and read this space in a variety
of exciting ways in future! |

To
the coordinators and writers of dotlit
We would like to take this opportunity to say congratulations
on the production of dotlit.
This
project is a wonderful avenue to showcase creative writing
talent and provide professional development opportunities
to young and emerging writers.
Organisations
such as the Queensland Writers Centre appreciate the
positive impact such programs have in fostering young
writers prior to publication. These programs provide
motivation and encouragement for emerging writers and
as such we believe that this is an extremely worthwhile
project. We wish you every success. |

Centre) |

I
just wanted to say congratulations on the launch of
dotlit. It was, as said,
'very exciting'. I am so excited that this sort of avenue
is opening up for creative writing! So, congratulations
to both you and Philip on a great job done, and best
wishes for the future. Long live literature! |
