Joining you guys on the bench, can’t make it to Adelaide after all.

Hopefully will at least get manuscript in (FINALLY!) to Bernadette – have promised it to her by end June, currently at final polishing stage of Ch 4 (of 12) so pretty much on track. Still can’t believe it’s over a year now since Bribie. Cripes!

au contraire, graham, we don’t have anything to sing about! or at least i don’t. i’m just trying to finish this blinkin’ book. 42000 words now, in between assignments for my diploma. no time to even think about short stories, so am very happy you are publishing for both of us!

Thanks, Terry. Let me know when you’ll be in Brisbane. I might be able to sneak in a trip.

As for hitting sixes, I suspect I’m only scoring the odd run here and there compared to some other Orbiteers who don’t sing their own praises so much (or, to be fair to myself, those who aren’t so over-excited as I am by the few, small successes I’m having.)

I’m moving up the bench, making space. But before you sit down, G, I shall dust it carfeully and gaze with quiet awe at one of our team who is hitting a few sixes. Keep up the good work, mate.

BTW, I will be going to Brissie for Supanova – hope to say hello to the wonderful Marainne.

Mate, rejections like that are fantastic. Just think, they didn’t have to say any of that nice stuff but they took the time to do it because they obviously believed it! So, I’m going to give them a ‘yay’ anyway

Not so good about the con though. Still hoping… *hoping*… I can
