Launching of the electronic version of Raven

You may have noticed the new Raven icon on the Scotch homepage. The first archived edition of the Scotch College creative writing magazine Raven appeared in 1992, and the last hardcopy edition was published in 2006. The magazine's intention was to celebrate original creative work by Scotch College boys and this is what the new resurrected version, in an electronic form, hopes to do too. The aim is that each term there will be one or two editions. Included in each edition will be a collection of meritous writing - fiction and, hopefully, also some non-fiction writing. Works of visual art will also be part of this creative endeavour and the Visual Arts Department will be on the lookout for deserving artwork.

Junior, Middle and Senior School students are invited to send good creative writing (with a maximum word limit of around 1,000 words) to jjweeda@scotch.wa.edu.au. It will be edited and then there's a good chance that it will be uploaded to Raven. All entries go in the running for the various Reporter prizes.
