I hope to have feedback from you all about whether you think it will work or not and what things you want to see. :)<br /><br />Nicole R Murphy<br />Chair, Conflux 4 http://conflux4.livejournal.com/1022.html public 0 http://conflux4.livejournal.com/566.html Wed, 29 Nov 2006 10:10:43 GMT http://conflux4.livejournal.com/566.html Conflux 4 has a new blog at the website: www.conflux.org.au/blog We're going to try to syndicate the two, so when the website one is updated, this one will be as well. Catching as many people as possible.<br /><br />In the meantime...<br /><br />The short story competition opens on January 1 and closes January 31. 2000 words of spec fic on the theme of Heroes from Near or Afar. More info at the website www.conflux.org.au<br /><br />Prices go up on January 1. You've got until then to get a membership at just $110.<br /><br />We now have an extra guest: Sharyn November, YA editor from America.<br /><br />Work has commenced on the program - some of the workshops are being advertised on the website, and expect to hear more about panels soon.<br /><br />People have started testing recipes for the Regency Gothic banquet. What we've discovered already is that it won't be a light meal. You probably won't need to eat the next day :)<br /><br />That's it in general, but we're excited about it, it's all coming together nicely. http://conflux4.livejournal.com/566.html public 0 http://conflux4.livejournal.com/434.html Sat, 28 Oct 2006 05:34:39 GMT http://conflux4.livejournal.com/434.html Was the announcement, and the announcement was the Conflux 4 would be taking place in Canberra on September 28 to October 1, 2007.
