About / Contact
I write fiction, pop-culture analysis, comics and music journalism, and whatever else comes out of my head. I also read like it's going out of style, make jewellery, go to as many rock shows as I can, watch a lot of horror movies, say tasteless things in public situations, and find every excuse I can to travel.
I'm usually to be found in Melbourne, Australia, where I work as Editor of the journal Australian Philanthropy.
