Post Writing for AS&T

Just wanted to let you know that I've accepted an offer to write the Community News section in Australian Sky & Telescope - that is, the "Things to do, news to share" section near the back of the magazine.

It's the section which lists and details upcoming events, news and info of what's happening in the amateur astronomy community in Australia and New Zealand.

I start in the Jul/Aug issue and there'll be scope to write other articles from time to time (as my knowledge and time permit!).

This decision was a purely personal one (nothing to do with IceInSpace) and the 2 entities are and will remain completely separate for me.

I feel that my experience in running IceInSpace over the past 2.5 years, my love of astronomy and my passion for building the local AU/NZ amateur astronomy community gives me the skills necessary to contribute to AS&T in a positive way.

Writing for a magazine is something I've wanted to do for a long time, so thanks to Greg Bryant for giving me the opportunity.
