I'm a writer, mostly of speculative fiction, living in rural Tasmania. I've got a rural GP wife and three small kids, and I keep a running commentary of life here so that when my kids are old enough to give a shit, they can read up and discover who their parents used to be. I tried doing this on paper, but I sucked at it. So I tried doing it online with an audience. It worked. May contain adult language and concepts. Deal with it.
A person has to start somewhere, no?
ReplyDeleteI guess. But of course, it's really out of their hands, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteEngrish tour for real? Oh seeing the signs would so beat giggling at them on the net. Training defeatists seems a little unnecessary tho :-D
ReplyDeleteHey you back in TAS? I've missed a couple of your tour blogs. Must catch. Hope we get to see photos soon.
I'm back in Tas. Preparing to do a photodump. And maybe talk about Sandakan, Sepilok and Kinabatang.
ReplyDeleteHit man? Grief counselor? That is awesome.
ReplyDeleteWOOT!
ReplyDeleteInteresting, a Neil Gaimanish job sort of...
ReplyDeleteWhen are you in Melbourne ie will you be attending Chaz Day on the 2nd and are you going to the horror writers masque on the friday?
Chaz - I think I'm pretty much locked into the 'Con. They've got me on about a half-dozen panels and events so far. On top of that, I'll have the Elder Son with me for a fair amount of time (it's a treat for his tenth birthday; he's very excited about attending the World SF Convention).
ReplyDeleteWhat's the venue for Chaz Day?
df
Chaz Day is the Mitre Tavern from 6pm once GBob arrive at around 7:30 we'll retire upstairs for a steak or three.
ReplyDeleteI'll be attending the Con on Saturday so hopefully I'll see you then. I'm going to the horror writers masque but have horrible thoughts that there'll be alot of wannabe Edwards & Bellas :((
Chaz... that's actually useful. Because anyone NOT dressed that way is likely to be a writer, and therefore potentially interesting.
ReplyDeleteTrue, so I'll be going classical masque unfortunately funds don't go true venetion masque but I can still have some fun!
