Melbourne Python folks, this one’s for you 👋
The Melbourne Python Meetup is back on Thursday 19 March, and we'll will be there for a special talk writing workshop.
If you’ve ever thought about giving a talk (at a meetup, at PyCon AU, or anywhere) this session with Katie McLaughlin will help you turn an idea into a real talk proposal. Bring your laptop and a rough idea, or just curiosity.

I'm running a free, online workshop to help you craft an awesome proposal to speak at #pyconau this year!
It's this Thursday evening (AEDT).

We've just published an important post clarifying how to best apply humour to your talk proposals at #pyconau.
We'd love everyone to be able to craft an interesting and entertaining talk that enthralls the audience, without missing the mark on the intended impact of any jokes.
Please give this a read if you intend on using memes, jokes or satire in your proposals.
A surprisingly large amount of background work went into our decision to… not change ticket prices this year at #pyconau. Thats in spite of rising costs and general inflation.
If you've ever wondered "why does it cost that much", this post is for you.
