Caravan Story
Author(s): Wayne Macauley
The first caravans arrive in a convoy. Wayne Macauley's narrator, Wayne Macauley, is in one of them.

In his strange new community, housed on a footy oval in a faraway country town, he is given his task. To create and be useful. To be thankful for the opportunity. He decides he will not give in to his misgivings; he will write. Then he finds out about the rejection slips already written for the work he has yet to submit...
