I’m so excited to tell you about a new initiative from the Colony that’s focused on the needs of writers from Australia, New Zealand and the Southern Hemisphere generally.
There are few more impressive sights than a writer from the South attending a regularly-scheduled Saturday Huddle.
For folk in the UK, our Saturday Huddles kick off at a very civilised five o'clock in the pm. Perfectly timed to snugly fit between one’s afternoon Darjeeling and the first cocktail of the evening (don't disillusion me, please).
For the writer in Sydney, though, it’s a grisly four o'clock in the morning! What an atrocity.
Well, life for our antipodean colleagues just became a little easier, because we’re going to start a new series of Huddles scheduled specifically at a time to suit writers from the Southern Hemisphere.
They will take place on the first Wednesday of each month, at the following time:
Event Details:
Wednesday January 10th
UK: 8.00 am
Johannesburg 10am
Hong Kong 4pm
Brisbane 6pm
Canberra 7pm
Sydney 7pm
Melbourne 7pm
Auckland 9pm
Other times zones
To attend please register in advance here.
Any Full Member is welcome to attend, irrespective of their location, but priority will be given to Litopians from the Southern Hemisphere.
