I had wondeful time at Adelaide Writers' Week. I cannot believe it has been and gone. So funny, you get so excitied about an event-not just a writing thing but any big occasion-and then in a flash it is gone. A reminder to enjoy the fun special moments when we can.

Making a living from #writing in Australia isn't easy. But it would be a lot harder without the last 60 years of hardfought wins by @asauthors. Australian royalties, copyright, contract advice, prof devt, standard fee rates, awards, mentors, promotion, PLR, ELR and now DLR.
