ReadFin Literary Journal (Winter 2018)
In the compilation of the 'Readfin' Literary Journal the editors and designers have worked closely together. The final outcome is a journal that incorporates fiction, poetry and prose, illustration, and creative fiction – a melting pot, something for everyone. Journals such as this have wide ranging appeal, not only for those who have submitted stories, but great as gifts, for book clubs, and an illustration of what can be achieved for students of writing and publishing. 'Readfin' is a published book with their writing.

Why the fish?
The ReadFin logo, in keeping the degree’s writing and publishing focus, is a play on words,
and is derived from the redfin fish or European perch which was first introduced to Australia
around 1860. It proliferates in the nearby Yarra River which runs through the parklands that
surround Melbourne Polytechnic’s Fairfield campus.
