Hi Shey, The Summer of Speculative Fiction program hasn't been posted yet but is definitely on in conjunction with the Aurealis Awards and Clarion South. For anyone in Australia who is thinking of coming - this will be a great weekend. www.fantasticqueensland.com/s_summerofspecfic.htmMDP

WOW, I just saw 44 users online this morning - why is no-one talking to us? This is great! This is VERY strange... but kinda cool. *gets out huge 'Welcome, Newbies!' banner* Helloooo out there! Come and say hi! We've got chocolate, we've got discussion... we've got naked-Parrish-and-Daac! ;D Well, if that doesn't get them to come out, nothing will.

Ok since I'm the spore on the floor i thought i might take the time to say Hiya! I'm generally quiet and unobtrusive but decided to make myself known. I can be a bit shy so don't kill me before you get to know me. I spend most of my time reading so you never know when i might pop up (sort of like that strange fungus you can never get rid of but is harmless so you leave it alone) I figured I'd find out more about one of many authors i love and the books written by said author. I might even find people who share the same love for reading who know of books that i might enjoy. Okay that's the most I've said in a while so i had better go before i say something to embarrass myself.

Hey Neko, it's good to meet you! Please, if you have any questions for us or marianne don't hesitate to ask! Also, feel free to revive topics that may appear dead.
Don't worry, we'll give you time to get over your shyness - some of us used to suffer from it I'm sure!
(One sentence posts are fine!)

Posting a lot sooner than I thought I would I have managed to escape the front desk to retreat to my abode in the back (where I belong). You know you hate where you work when you count each second that passes by lol.

Hey gatmog (and Neko, who sneakily started posting while I was on Christmas break)! What do you do for a living that you hate so much? I'm very nosy, don't mind me... *lol*

lol I work at a tertiary education academy in Canberra. I'm in admin but i'm generally thrown around too much and there is no structure here (I was supposed to be here temporarily prior to going into the government). I've been here for 6 months now as a casual working 5 days a week lol. That's why I'm frustrated haha. Good to meet you btw!
