Comment by Christina Ward on July 4, 2012 at 11:42 Hi everyone, I can't believe the teaching period starts next week. I've just come into a period of FT work (which is nice...) and am doing a sneaky Cert III in Radio starting next month on the side. Might have to limit my internet time this semester.
Anna, I hope you get to travel a lot to hone your writing, then we can all live vicariously through you!
Hey Anna - good to hear from you again. How's the studies going? Obviously at least, they are still going...lol
We'd love to have a story on your trip if you had it ready for Amanda before 4th July we could get it in the next Off in the Distance issue.
Keep in touch
Kim
Comment by anna theresia maria zeitzen-vand on June 28, 2012 at 14:41 Hi All, I hope everyone is having a relaxing holiday. Hubby and I have just returned from a trip to Port Elliott in South Australia, although it was cold and rainy we enjoyed ourselves. As I am studying travel writing next semester, I may write a story about this trip. Cheers Anna, (an extremely mature-aged student.
Hi Everyone - Just to introduce myself if we haven't already met. I am the DUSA Distance Campus Co-ordinator. Feel free to say hi on the main page chat or drop me a line here.
If you have any questions / issues you think might affect others then start a discussion forum here and lets see if we can't help each other.
