hello, i mustn't be going

This site is in danger of looking abandoned, but the truth is far from that. Got waylaid but I'll be back here soon. If anyone's still reading by that stage (thanks guys).
Meanwhile, I assume I'm the last kid on the writer's block to have found out (courtesy of the Weekend Australian) about lulu.com. What a fantastic idea for frustrated writers. I've only dipped a toe into it so far, but I love it. Coming soon: the book of the blog as standard option for readers to purchase? Why not!
Also while I'm here just wanted to bookmark this whimsical site by a St Kilda artist, Julie Shiels, who I saw interviewed yesterday on Sunday Arts. I share her obsession with text so I feel an instant affinity to her work. Kind of reminds me of Arthur Stace and his chalk Copperplate Eternity.
See you all soon.
