No blog tonight as I am absolutely exhausted after compiling a calendar of writers’ festivals and other wordy events in Australia and beyond for 2010 and 2011.

You would think someone had done this already, but I can assure you after a day of Googling that this is the best compilation of such dates you will find in terms of Australian activities plus a smattering of international.

I will continue to update the diary – especially with international dates, of which there were too many to include in this first push.

Stand by for a similarly helpful resource listing writing competitions and the like.

If you can suggest any additions for either list, please send the details, with links if possible, to waxings.blog@gmail.com .

Who says I don’t share the love?
