I'm good at being terrible at self-promotion. However, my book 'Calamities!' came out earlier this year & then kinda vanished from existence & made no end-of-the-year lists or anything like that but fuck it, I'm quite proud of it.

Scorsese films are instant-bimbofication to me. I have the ability to understand complex plots and storytelling devices - right up until the point where 10 middle aged men are all doing crime on screen

Thank you once again, Pōneke, for showing the heart of our city beats for Palestine. Thousands of you showed your solidarity with Gaza and all humanity today, joining thousands more across Aotearoa and millions around the world. And this is just beginning. Kia kaha. #SaveGaza#CeasefireNow

In 1905 Rotorua was the scene of a hunt for two escapees. Two raccoons broke free from their enclosures with the help of the neighbouring kea, who probably recognised kindred spirits. A reward of £5 was offered for their capture.

I advertised this to some friends as:
"If you're interested in deeply funny and searing poetry regarding non binary lesbianism, you will love this book.
Oh and like they have a classics degree and make fun of old dead philosophers if you're into that" (which I super am lbr)

This book is playful, frank, queer, funny, raunchy, smart, cerebral: the voice here is both preternaturally wise and disco dances with the dawn chorus. If you want philosophy in your WhatsApp chat, axolotl dreams in your Uber, or to remember the early freefall of love, this one is for you.
