Ken Challenor
It’s with great sadness I pass on the news that our member Ken Challenor passed away on Monday.
Ken was the founder of the Southern Highlands branch of the Fellowship of Australian Writers and a long-time active participant in all our activities.
He was a much-loved friend to many of us, a mentor and a good-humoured presence at our meetings.
Ken was one of nature’s gentlemen; he will be missed by all of us.

Meetings postponed
Hi members of FAWSH.
Your executive has decided to postpone the AGM and ordinary meeting scheduled for Saturday 14 March 2020.
Many of us are in vulnerable groups so we owe a duty of care to keep you safe.
When the way forward on COVID-19 becomes more clear we will reconvene these two meetings.
Sorry to anyone who has prepared material for presentation and to all of you simply looking forward to getting together.
All items and material can obviously be carried over to the next time we meet.
July author talk
We are delighted to welcome Robyn Arrowsmith as our guest speaker for the meeting of 13 July 2019.
Robyn has written the well-reviewed All the way to the USA, on Australian war brides from the Second Word War. She will talk to us about the writing and publishing process.
Robyn has been a member of the Fellowship of Australian Writers Southern Highlands branch so we will welcome her back as a researcher and published author.
Robyn’s web site is http://www.aussiewarbrides.com/.
Short play workshop
Good news.
Our short play workshop with Josh Hewitt is now fully subscribed with five plays for the session.
The workshop is on Saturday 13 April at 10.00am in the Henrietta Rose Room as usual.
Josh asks those who have sent their plays to him to bring five (5) extra copies on the day.
