Rijn Collins

Rijn Collins is an award-winning short story writer, published in many journals and anthologies, as well as having numerous audio stories produced: ‘Almost Flamboyant’ won the inaugural Sarah Awards for International Audio Fiction in New York. She has been a guest at many Australian writers’ festivals.

Rijn has also enjoyed two bitterly cold writing residencies: at Listhús in Ólafsfjörður, an Icelandic fishing village that inspired this work, and at Haihatus in Joutsa, a rural forest community in central Finland. She currently lives in Melbourne.
