Mother of all that is holy, how the hell did I fall in love with slam poetry now?

my favourite opinion about Homer is: it’s an oral text so it is much MORE authentic to listen to the audiobook than to read the Iliad or Odyssey on the page. watching it as a film while people around you eat, drink & chat is more authentic than reading it quietly to yourself in a silent library.

Oh I would be a terrible celebrity because truly, being perceived in meetings that I’m not apart of is so weird to me. What do you mean I’m not a faceless blob that no one knows the name of.

It’s so interesting to see this talk about 9/11 because I was 6 years old. We had the same style uniform as the Islamic school down the road. My mother didn’t let us wear our uniform out to protect us (her Aboriginal children) and that was my first experience of how bad the world was getting.

The man is raising his fist in a style typical of revolutionaries, and in his other hand he’s carrying a book with the Aboriginal flag on the cover. A woman is next to him, raising her hand and holding a pencil.

Also I’m in a very strange position of not being in so-called Australia during Australia Day and I’ve still had to deal with messages that make me want to scream into the void.

There is something about reading a book titled “Against White Feminism” and watching as every white woman avoids your eye once they see the title.

Ah yes, famously events with interstate attendees, book sales, coffee carts, wine bars, hundreds of employed artists, dozens of staffers, thousands of daily visitors to the city and, yes, ticketed events, generate "zero revenue". www.indailysa.com.au/news/just-in...

When the Premier was asked on Wednesday if he was concerned about the economic hit the state will face through the loss of Writers Week, he said “because the Adelaide Writers’ Week is a free event, it is not a ticketed event, it generates zero revenue. So no, not just at this stage.”

Writers & Readers Against Genocide have been maintaining a running list of writers who've withdrawn from Adelaide Writers Week. There's recent names that will be added to next list. (choice of graphics with latest release on Instagram is not very readable or accessible, so apologies for lack of ALT)

Thinking of the discarded boxes of AWW2026 totebags and guest swag-bags. They'll never have their moment in the sun. Was so keen for my 2026 swag-bag, and Green Room shenanigans 😔 But racism is always the line in the sand

As a former Director of Adelaide Writers' Week I am appalled that the Adelaide Festival Board has rescinded Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah's invitation to the 2026 AWW, explicitly linking its decision to the shattering crimes in Bondi. A shocking decision that will and should have far-reaching consequences.

Loneliness is a weird feeling. I don’t think I’m going to wax poetic in a way that hasn’t been written before but I will say that it is an oddly quiet feeling, like when you’re underwater and not breathing.

This year has been heartbreaking, tiring, scary and something else. I have less people than before, less confidence than before, less happiness than before. So I suppose it can only get better from here.

Words feel empty when I think of Bondi. But someone just said that this is the time to go donate blood, to make sure those affected are supported so I‘m going to do that.

Also would like to note that the Australian Center at UoM is also being shut down, with budget being cited as the reason. I do not like the narrative that I’m seeing if I’m being honest.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.
