Hi and welcome to this week's edition of Arts Alive, arts and culture current affairs radio...  I'm VINCENT O'DONNELL and I'm JESS MYLES*  I'm LUKE DYKES
This week*  A further report on the Rural Arts Association annual conference, held recently in Horsham, Victoria*  A festival in Adelaide in celebration of the Female Voice*  And a special report on the changing relations between publishers and author as one seeks to maximise profits and the other to maximise exposure of their work. Our guest this week is Frank Van Stratton.  His new book, and it has taken twenty-five years in the making, is called Huge Deal.  It is a biography of the now forgotten HUGH D. MCINTOSH, who was probably the most flamboyant theatrical entrepreneur and member of parliament that Australia has ever produced.And Nina-Marie will review*the remake of the JOHN FRANKENHEIMER classic movie from 1962, The Manchurian Candidate.

As reported on this program two weeks ago, the RURAL ARTS ASSOCIATION held its annual conference in the Victorian regional city of Horsham.  For more details on the business of that conference, Anna Brain spoke to one of the key delegates, the CEO of Country Arts WA, ANDY FARRANT..

ANDY FARRANT, from Country Arts WA, with his observations on some of the issues canvassed at the Rural Arts Association's recent conference. We are all familiar with the signature arts festivals, backed by millions of dollars and state governments, and the more art-form-specific festivals like the recently concluded Wangaratta Jazz Festival.  But there are others, run by groups or individuals with a real passion, as I found when I spoke to HEATHER FRAHN in Adelaide*

Item 2: FOFV (4.20)

Track 3: "The Girls The Soldiers Always Leave Behind" by Vera Pearce

Getting that first book published is a big moment for a writer* getting the second published is the beginning of a literary career* commonly staying with the same publisher for years.  But things seem to have changed*  Writers are expecting more from their publishers, and aren't adverse to changing publishers if their sales aren't up to expectations.  Is the phenomenon of loyalty between authors and publishers a thing of the past?  Guest reporter, Melissa Clark set out to find out*

Item 5: Literary Disloyalty (approx. 8 min)
First words: I think writers think*
Last words: ... than there ever will be publishing opportunities".
