I Must Be Talking about My Friends, Bruce Gillespie , single work essay
'At school in 1961, I had two friends. One was the co- publisher of my first fanzine, before I had heard of science fiction fanzines. After our family moved from the city to the country, I lost contact with that friend, but kept in touch with the other until he left for Sydney in 1972. I didn’t hear from him again, but I discovered that he died in 1994.' (Introduction)
(p. 3-7)
Damien Broderick, Bruce Gillespie , single work column
'When in 2010 Damien Broderick was given the A. Bertram Chandler Award for his lifetime service to Aus- tralian SF, many people at the awards ceremony must have wondered who he was. The younger members of conventions in Australia would never have met him, because Damien has been living in San Antonio, Texas, with his wife Barbara Lamar for more than ten years. Even before he moved overseas, he had not been seen at Australian conventions for some time.' (Introduction)
