E-BLAST - SUN 29 MARCH

Kiwi young writers (Auckland) Blake Gardiner and Jessica Knell have announced their engagement. They attended the young writer conference in Melb last Aug and Blake said they started courting when they were back home in Auckland. Blake is part of the Kiwi young writer team sending the daily Kiwi article to NZ Christian media (he does this month about with Kevin Park). Jessica is also part of the Kiwi young writers team as the coordinator for Week 3 - this means Jessica sends to those Kiwi young writers in Week 3 a reminder email for their due date. Jessica and Amy Manners has dinner with us the night before the conf last year. They like Delma a whole lot.
