            I have to say that the work Jen has done so far is amazing. Some beautiful evocative writing which I now have the difficult task of illustrating. I could be wrong, but I don't believe there has been a collection of Ripper themed poetry published before, so it's nice to be involved in such a project.

            We will have a limited collection of hand numbered copies for sale at the conference, but the book will always be available to order online for those unable to attend. A link for this will be announced nearer the time.

            All the best
            Andrew

              At first I thought to do a clever little paragraph, with the first letter spelling out "Do it again and you are banned". But then I figured, why waste the effort.

              Do it again and you are banned.

              That goes for everyone who has ever done it, or thinks they can get away with it in the future.

                  Thank you kindly sir! And not a coded whiff of displeasure! I am checking finances currently, we've spent a lot of the travel budget this year and we still have a Vegas trip this July but I should firm it up by this week and either be registering or not. To the dismay of conference organizers everywhere, alas. I have to wait til Stephen gets back from asia anyway, Pay Pal hates me and all my credit cards are locked out of it because I kept screwing up the registration process and they wanted me to send my blood and DNA to prove I was me. So I have to use one of his cards or accounts.

                  It would be great seeing a few people again though (and some for the first time).

                      Question to organizers regarding conference line up:

                      On the poster that lists the line up of speakers here on this thread, it says Stewart Evans will be speaking. However, on the official line up page on the conference website, Stewart is not mentioned, however Martin Fido is on there, and he's not on the poster on this thread.

                      Is there an official "official" line up of speakers?

                      Let all Oz be agreed;

                        Hi Ally,

                        It would be good to meet you there ... at long last.

                        Best wishes.


                        David.

                              While it is a bummer that neither Don nor Stewart are speaking any longer, the line up still has some interesting guests so I will staunch my disappointment with a Pimms (still not entirely sure what that is, but I've been assured it's good [or possibly this is a "setting up the yank" thang]).
