Nearly five years in the making, the first Sydney meet and greet event was a raging success - both of the members agreed!

I met up with Meaney, a most excellent, intelligent and discerning bloke, at a pub just north of the Harbour Bridge and had a long, long chat over several cleansing beverages. Much - both writing and otherwise - was discussed, much common ground...er, found.

There will be repeat events; next time, we may even incorporate food. How good it is to be able to have the in-the-flesh fellowship of AW extend to our end of the world.

Excellent! Writing is such an alone thing that it does me a lot of good to spend time with people who get that.

Next time, please let me know in advance and I shall arrange to have a cardboard cut-out of myself (minus a few pounds and years) in place. Buy it a drink and flirt with it just a little, okay?

I'm glad you had a good meeting. I've met up with friends here twice and am planning a third gathering.

Maryn, slightly less shallow than her cut-out

Ah missed you! I was in Sydney visiting family over Xmas. What a great place to be a writer!
