Field notes
The editor describes finding writers through poetry accounts and worker forums, then translating work by those who respond. The issue format adds a shared question and a passage from another book prompted by each writer’s words. The preface also describes footage of two writers made with support from a school documentary grant; the linked sections themselves are not represented in this extract.
