As mentioned earlier, I’ve recently come back from a short trip to Sydney. I had a great time – saw Batman Rises in IMAX, and on opening day no less. I love these new Batman movies; the Nolan brothers are men after my own heart. I also, while slightly lost in Glebe, came across this.

I’m pleased to report that the launch of The Shadow’s Heir, held this evening, was a rousing success. Pictures and recordings of the speeches will be made available shortly. Also, my personal LiveJournal has now been deleted along with the old community Griffins_Eyrie. All news will now be exclusively posted here.
Just a reminder to everybody that the launch party for The Shadow’s Heir is tomorrow. Don’t miss out!
