Yes, I am on Twitter.

Welcome!

I’ve been blogging since 2002 and this website contains pretty much everything I’ve written, recorded or messed up in the intervening ten years. I sincerely hope you’ll find something here worth raving about. So, welcome aboard!

Research

My work as a researcher has focussed on literature. My PhD was about poetry publishing; I also hold a Masters in creative writing and a Bachelor degree in Australian literature. Right now I’m interested in digital poetics.

Editing

For eleven years I was the managing editor of Cordite Poetry Review, an online journal of Australian poetry and poetics. I’ve also undertaken a range of editing assignments over the years, which I’ll soon be profiling here.

Writing

I’m a writer and poet. This website features many examples of my writing, from chapbooks to sonnets, short stories to unhinged rants, humorous posts to semi-serious musings on the meaning of life, namely: it’s all untold!
