I’m always looking for work from Lutruwita/Tasmania where I can fit it, but all Australian pitches are considered.

Joshua Santospirito @joshuasantospirito.com · 04/09/2026

stuff that stretches notions of what comics are, fiction/non fiction: I’m not fussed, but it has to be something creatively interesting. I’ll work on it with you as an editor and I can be as hands-on or hands-off as your project requires.

Oh I wasn’t asking what a eulogy was, was more confused that one was occurring four months later and hadn’t heard about a second memorial service. Questioned answered tho - vica was doing it in parliament. Got it.

So stoked about the NEW ANNUAL ZINE FAIR in Lutruwita/Tasmania! The State Library & Archives Zine Fair went super well with plenty of punters rolling in for nice chats and zine consumption.

Tassie is a VERY small place and the Small Press Zine Fair that I run is super large and popular despite no one helping to promote it … usually it’s the Zinesters themselves that bring the audience in … in many ways they ARE the audience … but

agree to their space being put to use for such an event. She was successful and they have taken it on. And now the Tas Writers Centre, the ABC, various community arts orgs and EVERYONE is promoting the zine fair. It’s quite exciting. Not to put a rain on their parade at all …

One is in a small art space in Launceston named Sawtooth ARI. Even the museum in Launceston shared the event on their socials, which is great. Down in Hobart the State Library has organised a zine fair which was suggested by a staff member who had been talking to me about how to get them to …

An odd phenomenon … and have run the only annual zine fair in Tasmania for 13 years and no major institution has ever promoted it on their socials or newsletters. It has been necessarily underground. The last 2 years I have campaigned for more zine fairs and this year we have THREE NEW ONES …

It began, as all writers festivals do, with zero comics authors being programmed … and it ended, as with lots of writers festivals these days, with comics authors being annoyed they cant join the walkout.

Since there is now a concentration camp on US soil, I felt that it was time for me to read Maus by Art Spiegelman. #booksky #bannedbooks #reading #socialjustice #literature #books

Frame from Maus by Art Spiegelman.

- You've heard what they say about Auschwitz. Horrible, incredible things.
- That can't be true!

Frame from Maus by Art Spiegelman. Art has drawn himself sitting at his drawing desk on a mound of corpses.

Page from Maus by Art Spiegelman. Art's father explains that not all prisoners died in the gas chambers. Some were burned alive while cremating the rest of the corpses.

I really dislike this smug, disingenuous, baseless type of critique of Greta Thunberg. For all the millions of narcissists, egotists, charismatic villains and disrupters, she’s a bleeding heart with the courage to take action beyond words. www.smh.com.au/world/middle...

smh.com.au

Activists like Greta Thunberg care more about fame than facts

When it comes to the moral high road, the likes of Thunberg seek to occupy ALL of it, no matter how muddled the thinking. This is precisely the problem.
