LIANA CHRISTENSEN is a Fremantle-based writer. Her poems are a vine, a jungle, a menagerie, a celebration of life in all its shapes and colours. Liana’s first chapbook Wild Familiars was launched at the 2006 WA Spring Poetry Festival. Lately we've seen Liana performing from memory and packing a punch. RAY UNIT impressed us with his experimental expression at the Perth Poetry Slam earlier this year. We don't quite know what this UNIT is gonna do at The Court, but it's bound to be interesting. Ray Unit is a musician, visual artist and experimental writer. Since the mid-90s he has released several poetry zines and CD's of experimental electronic music with Magick Trousers, AAA Chthonic, and Ashley J Higgs.4 JULY: GEOFF LEMON (Melbourne)

OPEN LETTER FROM JEN HAMILTON-EMERY:
Wednesday, May 20, 2009
As many of you will know, Chris and I have been struggling to keep Salt moving since June last year when the economic downturn began to affect our press. Our three year funding ends this year: we've £4,000 due from Arts Council England in a final payment, but cannot apply through Grants for the Arts for further funding for Salt's operations. Spring sales were down nearly 80% on the previous year, and despite April's much improved trading, the past twelve months has left us with a budget deficit of over £55,000. It's proving to be a very big hole and we're having to take some drastic measures to save our business.
Here's how you can help us to save Salt and all our work with hundreds of authors around the world.
JUST ONE BOOK
1. Please buy just one book, right now. We don't mind from where, you can buy it from us or from Amazon, your local shop or megastore, online or offline. If you buy just one book now, you'll help to save Salt. Timing is absolutely everything here. We need cash now to stay afloat. If you love literature, help keep it alive. All it takes is just one book sale. Go to our online store and help us keep going.
2. Share this note on your profile. Tell your friends. If we can spread the word about our cash crisis, we can hopefully find more sales and save our literary publishing. Remember it's just one book, that's all it takes to save us. Please do it now.
With my best wishes to you
Jen
