International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day

Yesterday was International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day, and I missed it!

But if you like, you can read some of my "professional quality" work online for free here (pdf file - it's the paper I gave at the Queer Space conference in Sydney in February, 'Slash As Queer Utopia'). It's sort of a cheat calling it professional quality when I fully intend to rework and improve it for actual book publication, but then I'm a day late anyway. And the original rant was about the impact of online distribution on people who sell their writing, rather than people who write as a component of a salaried job. NEVER MIND.

sounds possible - I'm on J duty this week as she has to revise the last section of her novel (50,000 words) in like four days or something insane like that, so I'll see how that's going. But I was planning to take Sunday off anyway - there's a thing on in the afternoon I want to go to (this - part of a festival of contemporary Indigenous culture, to remedy some of my iggerance...)
