Crikey has reported that the editor of literary journal Meanjin, Sally Heath, is stepping down, and that her 25-year-old deputy Zora Sanders will take over.
Sanders, appointed as deputy editor in 2009 to help manage the addition of the digital version of Australia’s second oldest literary journal, said in an interview at the time that, ‘The point for me is to get Meanjin content to as many people as possible, in whatever format they want. There are still a lot of people who don’t want to read Meanjin online, in fact I think most of our current subscribers really enjoy having the hardcopy journal, but I don’t really see that publishing online and in hardcopy are mutually exclusive.’
