Entrants were given the opportunity to harness their creativity and write a short story or a poem inspired by this year’s theme “Brave New World”. The theme allowed for wide-ranging interpretations while acknowledging the many circumstances operating that break us from our past and oblige us to reconsider the world and our place in it. The ‘Writer’ competition was established in 2019, as part of the University’s 150th celebrations. This year’s judge is New Zealand writer and Otago staff member Craig Cliff. Writer 2022 - Full Episode This year’s winners read and discuss their works with co-organisers Lisa Dick and Nicola Cummins, with judge’s comments from Craig Cliff. https://oar.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/NZOA64k-Writer2022-complete-Mixdown.mp3 Lennox Tait The winner of the student poetry section was Lennox Tait.
