Coupla things
First, on Sunday afternoon, I'm co-ordinating the conversation on a Writers Panel to be held at fortyfivedownstairs. The putative title is Words in Space: Writing Narratives of Place and Locality, and the pin is Melburnalia, a production of five short plays about - you guessed it - Melbourne, curated by White Whale Theatre. And it's a most interesting line-up - the writers are Kate Holden, Lally Katz, Ross Mueller, Tee O’Neill and Alice Pung. (If you haven't read Pung's Unpolished Gem, a memoir about growing up in Footscray, well, you should - it was one of my books of last year). I'm sure it can't fail to be an interesting conversation, so do join us.
Details: $5 at the door, 4.15pm – 5.30pm on Sunday November 11, Fortyfivedownstairs, Flinders St, City. RSVPs requested on 9662 9966.
Second, last night the Malthouse launched what promises to be a most fab season 1 for 2008. Richard Watts mysteriously says it's embargoed - nobody told me, and it all looked very public, but you know me and embargoes. UPDATE: yup, it really was embargoed, so Ms TN has politely removed those (minimal) spoilers until Monday. Embargoes have to be shoved under my nose in nice big texta, I suspect.

Yes, the media kit I was given yesterday afternoon says 'embargoed until Monday 12th' in large letters; a detail not included in the shiny new program we were all given last night! We'll just have to champ at the bit until then, eh Alison?
Ah, that explains it - I didn't get a media kit until it was emailed today. After I'd blogged, of course. I did recheck my invite, you know; I'm not such a naughty girl.
I didn't even get a media kit. I really should let people know that I've moved house. Otherwise I could have spilled some beans. If I hadn't been busy moving house.
Funny how things balance out that way.
My media kit is on the other side of the world. I don't understand why they couldn't have just sent it to New York. Clearly I can't wait until Monday to find out. I'm going to get my sublettor to open my mail...
Hi Avi - are you ever coming back from New York? Sounds to me like you're comfortably ensconced. Don't forget us in all those bright lights.
I mustn't be media.
(Have you moved house, Born Dancin'? I'm kind of getting a vague impression...)
No I'm never coming back.
It was nice knowing you all.
If you're not media then someone needs to redefine media.
