Imagine you were about to appear at a writers' festival to talk about your first book... then the whole thing fell apart.
I wanted to find debut authors who almost talked at Adelaide Writers' Week. These are 21 folks I've identified so far but *please* let me know who I've missed or mixed up.

Had everything closed up to keep cool.
I thought the sun had set early.
Went outside and the sky is an odd colour.
The air smells heavy.
Bushfires are taking over the state.

Pretty stoked with the Finalist list for DICE's Independent Game of the Year; solid representation of the 'indie vibes' and what's pushing the medium forward for everyone.
(Might be biased, was chuffed to join the panel for the first time this year, games are good!)

Travelling to the US right now, especially for work feels like an endorsement.
Safety and risk is definitely a consideration but, more than anything ethically it feels fucked.
It will definitely have impacts on my career & friendships but fucking hell.
