Who am I?
I am Gillian Polack. I answer mainly to Gillian, but also to Dr Polack, Ms Polack, Miss Polack and "Hey, you". I live in the centre of the known universe (Canberra, ACT, Australia).
I write, I think, I serve on committees, I teach. I am passionate about people, about books, about history.
I talk a lot. I dream a lot. The Middle Ages sneaks into my dreaming, and so does speculative fiction. Cooking sneaks onto my waistline.
I am not terribly fond of writing webpages about myself (I really prefer inventing stuff fictional - truth is such a shaky proposition sometimes), so I really want to say upfront that Tamara Mazzei is responsible for this being here and me having written it. She also tweaked it for me when it looked like a dog's breakfast. Where I can be found At the Australian National University, and at the ACT Writers Centre and in odd history, cultural and other locations. I also blog . My blog is the easiest way of keeping track of me. If you want to get in touch with me, please feel free to email Some aspects of my life
Bibliographies for myself and other members of the Canberra Speculative Fiction Group This is not the whole of my life. I have largely left family and friends out of these pages because they (mostly) deserve their privacy. And I will add to the pages as I discover crucial other things that are missing, or get time to work more on content. This is my very first attempt to design a webpage, so please forgive all deficiencies!
