  Hi Pam, I didn't recognise your photo at first - forgetting momentarily that you are in fact Catwomen. Yes, shortlisting has been pretty exciting. I even have my photo and interview int he Darwin Sun (not the NT News, as there were no crocs in my short story - have to work on that). Any news from your end?
  cheers, the angler.
