I’ve never been able to write The End when I finish a first draft (knowing the editing ahead) so this will have to do. #leesouthern#3 #ineedatitle

Had a good chat with Sheds, the Men's Shed mag, about making things with my hands (chef knives, whisky, jewellery, food) as a respite from the fiction writing/teaching/worried parent headspace, and how good it is for mental health. #mensshed

Thanks to Oz crime fiction stalwart @kcfromaustcrime.bsky.social for this review. Karen's been reviewing Oz Crime for decades and long supported the genre and its writers. Any time I want to read about an Australian crime title I go to her website first. www.austcrimefiction.org/review/cutle...

A great bookmail day - Iain Ryan’s much anticipated follow-up to The Strip and Andrew Nette and Samm Deighan’s collaboration on Political Violence and Resistance in Cinema from the Arthouse to the Grindhouse 1960-1990 (Iain and Andrew are two of my favourite Oz crime writers.)
