Peter, Thank you for the comments on my website! My husband put it together for me (I'm very proud of it).
I love your illustrations. I think I'll have to check into your 101 things, before I grow up.
As for SCBWI events, I have not attended any, but I do plan to make it to the... more

Hi Peter, Good to hear from you and great to know we can catch up at Ipswich. Feeling a little shy on the Festival front so will much appreciate a familiar, friendly face *grin* Sandy

Hi, Peter! It's also great to be able to connect with you here. It's a small internet world!

Hi Peter. It's always nice to meet another Aussie in the humungous world of writing for kids. Best of luck with your projects. Regards, Julie.

Hi Peter, thanks for the message. You illustrations are very interesting, I'd like to see more. I'm in Nambour, but don't get to Brisbane often. I don't need the city. I've never thought of going to writers meetings - though I did a few workshops with Jill Morris several years ago.
