Hi hi!

I'm avoiding writing a Gwen Harwood speech for tomorrow (ARRGH!!), so I thought I'd join up and say hey. I've been reading this site for ages, and I didn't see this posted up, so I thought I'd share it :) Mum got linked to it off SMH.com, and she showed it to me:

It was written by a teenage Aussie author, Will Kostakis. It sorta has me scared for uni :S but hey! we all have to get through it!! Has anyone heard of this author guy anyway? I might pick up his book if it's as funny as that, so if you've read it, TELL ME!! xx

and introduce yourselves when u reply xx

:rofl:

He went to my school and I've met him on various occasions (since he comes back to help us) - his younger brother is in my year

Whoa... I feel famous. I'm Will Kostakis, I've had craploads of webhits coming from here these past few days, so I thought I'd swing by, sign into my old account and say hey, and thank sally for posting a link to my blog, i appreciate it :p

I'm doing some free creative writing workshops for high school students in the coming weeks in prep for the HSC, so I'll post about them on the English forum.

Catch ya,
Will

I didn't raise a chuckle at all.

He sounded like one of the pretentious noobs he was dissing.

Well I have actually attended university as I was offered a place at UniMelb's Rising Star Program in Year Eleven due to the fact that I have published a book for young adults at such a young age and have communication skills incomparable to that of my infantile and rampantly adolescent peers. Not that I try to bring it up much, or anything
