In 1994 I started my fanzine - Awaken -(now in hiatus) I went on sabbatical from the world, for 2 years, folowing a personal 'hiccup', and returned to attend Multiverse2, in Melbourne, where I again caught up with many friends who I have missed for way too long. Thankyou to all of those who have helped me get back on track personally and in fandom.

MultIverse 3 Melbourne 1997 Multiverse 2 was my first convention for 2 years and David's
first science fiction convention. Guest of Honours were : Claudia
Christian (Babylon5) ("We're was Bitter!!"), Robert Llewellyn (Red Dward). We had a great
time and got back in touch with some friends I haven't seen in a
while. Every one's name tag was 'Kosh'. The set included a
fantastic Original Trek icon (Far right) |
