It’s that time of year again, when the Aurealis Short List is announced. This is a peer judged award that is held annually. Having been involved in running the awards in the past I know how much work is involved by dedicated people, so I’m sending out a big thank you to the AA team.
Well done, everyone on the short list. Writers tend to be solitary beings and they don’t get the immediate feedback that musicians or other creative people get, so it is a buzz to be be short listed by your peers for an award.
And also, a big congratulations to my fellow ROR writers, Margo Langan and Tansy Rayner Roberts who both have one or more of their works listed for an award. Both Tansy and Margo do a lot for the writing community.
Support Aussie Spec Fic authors and pick up one of their books today.
