Hullo! As Chirugal knows, I've had computer troubles that have prevented me accessing the forum for a very long time... well, today I installed broadband, and now I can access it again!

How's everyone been? What's up? What have I missed? I'm going to potter off now and catchup on everything. Oooh, it's good to be back. ^__^

edit: Just to let everyone know what I'VE been up to... writing lots, working lots, having fun at uni and with friends. ^__^ I have two major projects running now, and novel and a comic collab with an artist friend. I've also been kept busy as a primary moderator over on another forum... it has nearly 3000 members and I'm one of the main 'explainer of rules and keeper of peace' peoples, so that's always fun.

Also, this year I'm probably going to go to one of the big conventions. Any advice on the best one for a newbie?

Oh, and just because it's been so long and I've had a major haircut since the last photo I showed everybody... picture!

[Sheyana]

YAY!! You're back! Thats great. I hope your computer problems are well and truly over with now. Nice piccy! now I'll have to hunt up the old photo to see what the hair changed from.

Practically everything has happened...I forget when we saw you last! check it all out and post everywhere please!

Welcome back, it'll be good to see you around again! ^_^

[Chirugal]

Whoo! Yay, Mouse! So good to see you! *glomp-hugs*

I was getting really worried that there was a problem with the forum (because even though it seems I know all and can fix all, half the time I don't have a clue what I'm doing)...

What have you missed? Errr... board re-vamp, lots of new members posting, lots of new members then falling silent... XD

Love the pic. The hair suits you. ^_^

Hi Mouse,
I thought we'd lost you forever. YAY!!! to see you back.

The best con to come to will be 'Conjure' (Aussie National convention) in Brisbane at Easter. Need to buy your membership soon before prices go up.

Otherwise 'Conflux' in Canberra in June or 'Continuum'
in Melbourne in august I think.

Of course if you fell like a trip to Perth you can come to the fancon later in the year that I am GOH at. It's called 'Fandomedia.'

New faces! Hullo all.

I figured if it was actually a problem with the forums proboards would have known about it and fixed it... and this was the only proboards forum I was having trouble with. I still don't know what the problem was... but apparently broadband fixed it. (I'm wallowing in the super highspeed sexiness at the moment, oh yes I am.)

Jedi, my avatar is actually a quote from Finding Nemo. I love that movie more than is healthy, I swear. The actual picture is from a webcomic that is very dear to my heart. Edgar is such a cute little lizard. ^__^

Marianne! Great to see you again. Bit of a wait on your next book, I see... the excerpt on your website has me interested already.

I was looking at Conjure, but my university placement falls over that time period and thus makes it a no-go. Conflux looks good though... Sara Douglass is one of my favourite fantasy authors. ^__^ Are any of the other aussies here thinking of going this year?

[Sheyana]

Nope, I'm going to Conjure...nice and close to home! Pity you can't make it! ;( why's Uni placement on easte weekend... (just showing my ignorance about what you do...)

Ah well, enjoy whichever one you choose!

I was nick named skwishee before the film was released, I was thinking of doing copyright but I didn't think I'd win lol
