books

My first published poem appeared in 1991. Since that time, I’ve had many poems published individually, both online and in print. I’ve also self-published three collections of poetry (chapbooks, really), co-written a pamphlet and had three collections (one pamphlet, one chapbook and one full-length collection) published by Australian publishers. In addition, I’ve had a hand in the production of several journals and poetry books. This page, therefore, is an attempt to categorise these works. The links below will take you to individual pages for each of the collections I have had published under my name. On these pages, you’ll find extracts from my PhD thesis, “Bonfire of the Vanity Presses: Self-Publishing in the Field of Australian Poetry” (Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, 2010) which, as the name suggests, is an examination of the practices of poetry publishing, including my own. Some pages also include links to scanned copies of these collections. Enjoy!
