A still moment captured by a camera's shutter. The rapid fire of the mouse in a tight League of Legends match. The protracted sound of a door closing with finality.

In the eighteenth edition of this creative anthology, twenty-six writers explore consonance and assonance that rattle like a chattering jaw, narratives composed of hyperlinked rabbit-holing, and stories that tick with explosive anticipation. Some will make you laugh, others will make you cry, all will feature writing which clicks.

In this collection spanning fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and the experimental, Australian writers from Monash University and beyond share every class of bric-a-brac, including their most extreme online poems, the stories that keep them up at night, and assembled fragments falling into place.
