I'm going. All paid up, in fact. I take the opportunity to see my daughter who lives in Glasgow, and my agent who lives in Torquay, but who will be there too. And who knows, by then I might have a new pubisher to see as well, as I have a MS with a UK publisher right now. They have been nibbling, but no bite yet.

Trudi Canavan is another Australian author who is going...

I really do think that we should have a table for SFFWorld at the con. I don't know about all of you here, but I know that this site has been so supportive of my work over the years, and it has been a constant source of information and enlightenment for me as well. I would love to see all the members, authors, mods, posters etc. Without a table of some sort, no one would ever know anyone other than the authors who use their real names.

You can all write SFFW on your foreheads in permanent marker to identify each other... :D



... it'd be a great conversation starter with anyone.

*** Note to Gary: If we go to an Australian con, please manage to surreptitiously drop Rocket's name from the SFFWorld table list... Or make extra sure the marker pens have all been locked away... *** ;)

The last time I was called Hun was by an eighty year old woman! Now that is recalcitrant! Nevertheless, it is true that I was once 16, strange and marvellous as it may seem.

Sori Alison bad habit. the thing is i type hun but i rarely say it. it's usually something really random like bubs. but hey tis the mind of a weird teen girl. . . . . .you couldn't expect much less really. School is bak so work is back too :confused: :o :(

[Tari]

Ah yes...I didn't much like being 16, myself, and prefer being 42. Which as we all know, is the answer to the Meaning of Life.

Well they say you dont start living until your 40! ;)

I'm sure I was more or less alive beforehand :) - but I'm a slow developer.

U know wat i mean. but i could take a wild stab in the dark and say that there is a possibility that u were alive before hand as well but u never know?!? :)

Harrummpphhh! Big time!
Do you realize that the only book of yours available at Amazon U.S. is Attempt at Being. The fantasy novels are not due to till next month and there is no mention of your other published work except to say that two of them are out of print. Is this fair? Is this an alien conspiracy? Have GW and the Radical Thorne convinced the publishers they can't stand the competition and to delay release of your work as long as possible? What is going on here?
Would appreciate an arrow pointing to a source for your poetry. Sampled it at your website. Eager for more.
Sincerely yours, flattery intended, sucking up carefully considered.

Woah, HE, I'm blushing here... I had you taped as a hard boiled type - :D

Amazon.co.uk actually has a listing of almost all my books here (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/search-handle-form/026-2963707-8619625). Probably the best book to get, if you're interested in the poems, is Arc Publications' The Common Flesh, which has both new and selected poems. Maybe the US will catch up soon!
