Had a fantastic time at the Aurealis Awards last night, lots of catching up with people, lots of excellent speculative fiction rewarded, lots of alcohol imbibed by others making me seem more interesting than I actually am. Who can ask for more?

The Regersek Zone to be published on Antipodean SF
Created May 5, 2013. Last modified May 5, 2013. 0 comments. Top.
It’s been a long time between publications. A few “life gets in the way” events late last year really threw me out of the writing zone. That, combined with my attempts to write some longer-short pieces, has meant it is a long time since my last story made its way out into the world. As a result, I am ridiculously happy that Nuke (the editor at Antipodean SF) has accepted one of my flash fiction pieces for publication.
Conflux 9 – and that’s what it is all about

So, after some last minute travel plan changes (my wife realised that 4 days in Canberra with me attending a SF convention does not a happy holiday make… for her at least), I rose ridiculously early on Thursday and hopped on a bus. Yes, a bus. To Canberra. From Sydney.

For those few who have subscribed via email. I have been using Google’s FeedBurner email subscription service, which inexplicably stopped working about a month ago. For those that don’t subscribe via email:
Conflux 9 – the workshops

As I’ve mentioned in a few other posts, I’m off to my first Conflux convention (Conflux 9) next weekend. I’m looking forward to it, this convention I’ve signed up for some workshops to complement my tendency to generally lurk around.

Those that follow Antipodean SF will know that the editor, Nuke, also does a podcast where all the stories are read out, usually by the authors themselves.

Work has kept me a bit busy over the last couple of weeks, so I haven’t had a lot of time to add to the blog. In that time, three different sets of Australian award nominations have come out (in chronological order of release):

Tsana Dolichva has done an excellent summary of some of the speculative fiction reviews submitted in January and February for the Australian Women Writers’ challenge 2013. Fantastic idea! She even kindly mentions a couple of my reviews, but don’t hold that against her.
Round up of Ditmar posts

As outlined in a previous post, the Ditmars (Australia’s national speculative fiction awards) are open for nominations for works created in 2012. As well as relying on the excellent Ditmar eligibility wiki, I’ve been keeping track of posts by people I follow around the inter-web as they outline their Ditmar eligibility. If you want a bit more information on any of the authors, publishers and commentators listed below, click through for eligibility goodness (they are listed in the order I came across them). (1)

Regular readers might recall that I attended, and enjoyed very much, GenreCon 2012 late last year. Well, this year it is happening again. GenreCon Australia 2013 will be held in Brisbane in early October.
