It’s Aotearoa-New Zealand Speculative Fiction Blogging Week!
Yup, it must be spring because things are happening all over, with Suffrage Day yesterday—although that, of course, is historical!—and NZ SpecFic Blogging week having commenced on Monday 17 and running through until Sunday 23.
Sponsored by SpecFicNZ, the idea of the blogging week is that bloggers everywhere post on NZ speculative fiction topics all week. As it says on the SpecFicNZ blog:
“Post to your blog in that time, and whether it’s a snippet of SF poetry, or a self-indulgent squee about the Fantasy epic you’re reading – or writing – or a discussion of the craft, or just pictures of that freaky costume you wore to the last Con, you’ll be in to win fame and fortune and prizes!”
I’ll let you click through to SpecFicNZ, here, to find out more about the prizes and how to win fame and fortune! 😉
But otherwise, if it’s Science Fiction/Fantasy/Horror and it’s Aotearoa-New Zealand: get blogging!
Erp, I completely missed this – most embarrassing! But I’m glad you were on the ball as usual, Helen 🙂
Well, I almost missed it as well—it didn’t seem to be that activey promoted even amongst SpecFicNZ’s membership, which is a shame, but fortunately I was checking the SpecFicNZ site for something else and it was like: “Oh no! It’s this week!” But was glad I managed “something”, if not the post around NZ specfic I’d intended. But…next year! (If I remember!)
