I'm a Melbourne-based writer, editor and lover of the screenshot.
My first book In My Defence, I Have No Defence, was released by Affirm Press in June 2021. My first novel will be released in 2025.
I was on the writing staff for The Weekly with Charlie Pickering, on the ABC. I wrote jokes for television (or laptops, depending on your age).
Some other things: I had a TV column in The Age and Sydney Morning Herald and have written popular TV recaps for Junkee, most notably on Game of Thrones, The Bachelor and The Bachelorette and Neighbours. I have written about TV, film, music and culture for The Guardian, Harpers Bazaar, ELLE, frankie, The Big Issue, The Age, Vulture, The Cut, Pitchfork and The Saturday Paper.
I have also appeared on panels at The Wheeler Centre, the Emerging Writers’ Festival, National Young Writers’ Festival and Melbourne International Film Festival. My work has appeared in two frankie press collections, Something to Say and Look What We Made, and the University of Queensland Press essay collection, Doing It.
