Just discovered a few of these lately after picking up the latest copy of Heat from a friend who has a subscription.
Anyone regularly read any of these? Thoughts? And the all important: anyone submitted any of their work and had it rejected/published? Tell your story! Two of my lecturers have had stuff in Heat/Southerly/Meanjin, but i'm trying to work out whether or not students have a shot at getting anything in there. For some reason I don't think quality of writing is an issue, as they seem to publish some crap from acclaimed writers (in my view anyway ). A referral/name seems to be a bit of a ticket.
A few websites for those keen on checking them out:
Heat (UWS) - http://www.giramondopublishing.com/heat/index.html
Southerly (USyd) - http://www.arts.usyd.edu.au/publications/southerly/default.html
Meanjin (UMelb) - http://www.meanjin.unimelb.edu.au/
Overland (commie brigade) - http://www.overlandexpress.org/index.htm
