Reading is my only competitive sport (though one in which I only compete with myself).
Over the last decade, I’ve read an average of 3 books a week, or more than 150 books every year. From romance and fantasy, YA and literary fiction, poetry and political manifestos, my reading is perhaps best characterised as ‘eclectic AF.’ But it wasn’t until I started work within Australia’s literary sector that I realised how narrow this reading really was.

AI policy
I am a concerned and conscientious objector to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies. You can read more about my many objections in my recent piece on raining on the parade of generative AI in the arts (and everywhere else).
If you consume or use my work or writing, you can be sure that the creativity, labour and language that goes into it are either my own or drawn from the wisdom of the clever humans I reference or cite, and that I do not intentionally use Al to research, generate or edit in any part of my writing or publishing processes.

I undertake the majority of my research, writing, advocacy and sector development work on a self-funded basis.
