Adelaide pals: seldom do we celebrate a Victorian, but we have to make an exception for Wayne Marshall's debut novel, Henry Goes Bush. Launching next Wed at Ern Malley. Free entry, just rock up, and don't worry: LOCALLY-sourced readings from yours truly, Alex Cothren & @jake-dean.bsky.social.

So, I have a lot of respect for @islandmag.bsky.social . And ordinarily, I welcome criticism of my work. But this piece contains several serious factual inaccuracies. Where does this Ferr-Fow joker get off? 😤 Read and decide for yourself: islandmag.com/current-issue

I don't want to alarm anyone, but Wayne Marshall's historical/literary/speculative romp, Henry Goes Bush, is at large and roaming the countryside. Track down a copy however you can.

All the promo assets you'd need for this concept already exist.

Really sad to hear the news about Meanjin. Seeing one of my stories in print there, alongside work by ozLit giants, was the first time I felt like a real writer. What we're losing with this closure is not replaceable.

Looks like equal numbers of Lions and Wallabies jerseys on this flight from Adelaide to Canberra. Game day!! Hope it's drier in the capital...

For some inscrutable reason, my children have written my worst nightmare upon the wall. If a bird eats my manuscript in the coming days, I won't be able to say I wasn't warned.

Thanks, Microsoft -- I too am all for nature (if and only to the extent that it enhances my personal quality of life).

A colleague just brought me a plate of fruit, and is insisting that I eat it. I guess it's time to look for a new job.

Hungover in Melbourne after a friend's 40th the night before. Looking for a place to lick wounds until 5pm flight. Accidentally but happily got caught up in 'Yes' rally for a while, then stumbled on this place. Ahhhhhhhh.
