“Have done fanzines, filksinging, pro writing. Happy to make friends and break stereotypes. Now in London, ready for Melbourne. Love to bring back opal. May illustrate own trip report. Taught Devra Langsam to hand-cut mimeo stencils, kept my styli which make nice kitchen tools. Sang at Old Ship Inn after Regency Dancing at Brighton Worldcon; lucky some Scots who’d heard Filthy Pierre in hotel bar sing unwise verse of “God Save the Queen” arrived then and realized no murder needed. Very fond of rum-pots, crack-pots, and how are you, Mr. Wilson?”

MURRAY MOORE (Mississaugua, Ontario, Canada)

ANZ nominators: Cath Ortlieb, Bill Wright
“I agreed to stand for DUFF to create a race. But I now believe that sending a North American delegate elected instead next year will allow the time necessary for those candidates to be known; for the ballot to be distributed and the money raised through voting; and for the host convention, other hosts, and the North American delegate, jointly to plan an itinerary through which delegate and hosts all get the maximum benefit. Therefore my unusual position is that, if elected on this ballot, I will not attend the Australian national SF convention June 8-11 in Melbourne. Furthermore I encourage you to join me in voting for Hold Over Funds on this ballot.”

Administered FAAn Awards 2006-2008. Invented, administered, and raised funds for HANA, the one-time fund sending a US fan to the Yokohama Worldcon. Member, ANZAPA.
