Writes stuff. Tries to be kind. Dirty punk. Obsessive reader. Obsessed Dad.

A small moment of joy. This dorky nudnik is 12 today. Happy birthday to the #NoEyedWonderDog. Think I'll just hide away and hug him for 24hrs.

That moment you realise, as the lid gradually lifts to a steady pop pop rhythm, you might have put too many kernels in the pot. Every. Single. Time.

It seems odd posting about good things right now, but I'm thrilled to have a story in this collection based on Nick Cave songs along with some of my favourite writers and friends. Doubly thrilled that my story got a nod in The Age/Sydney Morning Herald review on the weekend.

The world is too much right now. I've run away for the weekend. I realise the absurd privilege of doing this but... *sigh*

Just loving the design of this new(ish) Pushkin Press Japanese novella series. It's like they're screaming (puts on best Audrey 2 voice): "READ ME, PRESSER. READ ME NOW!"

Right now, my reading is strictly limited to books I'm reading for the prize I'm judging and novellas I want to review for Ants. Meanwhile, the stack of books I'm dying to read before the year's out continues to grow. These plus the Labatut and Enard. Which should I prioritise?

My 6yo had her first piano lesson. She learnt the new to Twinkle Twinkle but that wasn't enough. When she got home, she insisted she write her own song. Proper notations and all. I didn't have the heart to tell her. But... damned if it's not the punkest tune I've heard in years!
