OH MY GOD, THERE ARE ONLY 23 MORE SLEEPS TO GO!!
54 sleeps until Christmas and 23 sleeps until my novel #TheCross ✞ is released.
If you watch the vid closely, you'll see a number of little hints about . . . . well, you'll have to wait and see.

Dear Corporates, if you keep getting rid of staff, eventually no one will be able to afford to buy your products.
You’ll all be super profitable until you’re not.
I feel like I'm going mad here Helen. A rape apologist zeros in on Kon's capacity to call himself a lawyer by questioning whether he's passed a 'bar exam'. I tell him there's no such thing to be admitted as a lawyer in Australia, then the twitter legal experts come romping in to tell me about exams for barristers as if that is relevant to the point of admission to legal practice
I don't know why after all my years of interacting on here but I'm still constantly amazed at people's inability to read a basic tweet of less than 40 words - and spend a basic 30 seconds comprehending it before they post.
Does anybody bother doing that anymore?
@ArchyJaneF@DazBuckley1@Kon__K Oh for god's sake, yes I know this. We are talking about Kon being a lawyer, not a barrister and you do not have to have a "bar exam" to be a practising lawyer
Is everybody incapable of reading a basic tweet today?

Once they realise their family and friends, and especially the women in their lives want nothing to do with them, they discover they can be rape apologist arseholes online.
@JaneEOpie@DazBuckley1@Kon__K Yes but only some states/territories require a barrister's exam. I can't recall off the top of my head but Vic & NSW do, can not be bothered googling the rest (sorry Jane it's been a long day already) xx 😬
If the Labor government or the coalition are looking for what's driving people away from the major parties, then this sort of incestuous, jobs for the boys and gals, circle-jerk is what's causing people's disgust.
Every day, every week - they scratch each others backs.
Peter Dutton, who has never spent time on any cultural or museum board, will receive almost $50,000 p.a for attending four meetings a year.
Yes, you read that right.
