Massive thanks to the staff at Wellington City Libraries for organising the panel and giving us such a wonderful opportunity to have a conversation that is obviously long overdue.Thanks, too, to everyone who turned up to support us and Three Words - we could feel the energy - and especial thanks to Jenny, for her powerful and moving speech and blessing. And for those of you who missed it, the podcast of the panel discussion is here. Tissues at the ready. 

sarah laing's comics workshop

Sarah Laing gave a comic and zine workshop at Wellington City Library on May 2, as part of the library's popular annual Comicfest.

Indira Neville and Rae Joyce arrived just as the workshop was ending, but we managed to sneak a few photographs.

As you can see, the event was a total success, and there was even a cosplay competition at the end!

Three Words contributor Coco Solid has written an essay inspired by the Three Words panel discussion at Wellington City Libraries Comicfest2015. She states in her inimitable style why Three Words is necessary, why it's now. She just inspired us right back!
