I found the Sydney Review of Books by accident. Having only skimmed the site, it looks very interesting for those interested in Australian writing. I also like how it is set up in a blog format - the feeling is rather outgoing.
...Mid-lockdown, Fiona McGregor documented her writing week in Acts of Avoidance: ‘No artist who lasts into their forties is driven by delusions of fame: we just want to work. Is this why it’s so hard to get a holiday? Barthes’s infamous claim that writing was as involuntary as shitting and holidays an invention of the bourgeoisie, compels me.’
Give it a look.
