Before her novels, Erin Gough placed short fiction in two consecutive volumes of The Best Australian Stories, appearing in the 2012 and 2013 editions. These annual anthologies collect the year’s strongest short fiction from Australian writers, and inclusion is considered a mark of recognition in Australian literary circles.

The two anthology appearances came before Gough’s debut novel, Get It Together, Delilah! (2015), and show that she was already working at a high level in short form. Readers who know her primarily through her YA novels may find it interesting to see her earlier, shorter work in a different literary context.
