Latest tsunami info - hotlines, travel info, charities.

Can't wrap my head around 120,000 dead. 2400 times the size of my family. Half the population of Babylon, bit less than half the population of Canberra. 0.12 MIPs (Millions of Innocent People). That number's only going to go up.

I was talking to Jon last night about doing a tiny fanzine - just four pages. Given some contribs, I could realistically produce such a thing and mail it out (or email it out) within the next two weeks. Would it be realistic to flog it as a tsunami relief fundraiser for, say, $AUD10 (about $8US or 4 pounds)? Who could write or draw something within the next week?

Right then! 800 words on any topic of interest to fans (word count flexible due to time constraints - I'd need this by next Friday). If you like, suggest some possible topics first.

Fiction or non-fiction preferred? I'll go off and give it a ponder tonight, and get back to you with some ideas.

Righto! Non-fiction, I think.

It'll be a challenge, since I've been out of Who fandom for a few years, but I'll give it a go!

Doesn't need to be Who - I might make my Dad write something about how they got the boating stuff wrong in "Jaws". :-)
