I’m happy to announce that Australian poetry imprint Cordite Books will publish my third full-length collection, Transition Vamps, in 2026.

The contents of the book span three decades of transitions in my writing life: from the mid-to-late 2000s in Melbourne, Seoul, Den Haag and Amsterdam, to the 2010s in Karlskrona, Stockholm and Gustavsberg, and the early 2020s in Paris and Fryslân.

I’m looking forward to launching the collection in person and will of course share further details as they come to hand.

In the meantime, read the poem that may well have started it all: “Övergången” [The Transition], written way back in 2011, shortly after moving to Sweden for what I thought would be one year but turned into eleven.
