Its going to be a busy weekend! I'll be a guest at the 50th iteration of Swancon. I'm looking forward to meeting friends, fans, readers, writers and everyone really. I’ll be on 3 panel discussions, helping run a flash fiction workshop + in conversation with @jonathanstrahan.bsky.social

I won GUFF! (the UK/AU fan fund). I'm off to #Swancon in May. I hope to get to meet many of my Australian and New Zealand friends, and particularly members of the wonderful @brisbanein28.bsky.social team (if you aren't following them yet, please do!).

Last weekend I went to Swancon my local SFF convention (first time I've lived in a place where I've been able to say I have one of those). It was small but nice. Was good to be able to just sit in on panels and check things out without being on programming. Will probably check it out again next year
