NaPoWriMo – A Haiku
Just when I thought I couldn’t be busier in April, what with the Melbourne International Comedy Festival gigs I have booked and the awesome stuff on at the Wheeler Centre to go to, along with commitments to work and uni readings and assignments and maintaining a social life, I have, on a whim, decided to…

Short Thoughts: The Boy with Tape on his Face
This is just going to be a short selection of thoughts about the show I saw tonight. As part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival I saw ‘More Tape’ performed by The Boy with Tape on his Face at the Forum Theatre in Melbourne. Performed by New Zealander Sam Wills, this one hour show had…

In which I am a groupie
If you’re a follower of this blog, you would know that I went to Sydney last week to see NIN, QOTSA, Brody Dalle and Sweethead and it was amazing. Last night, on the spur of the moment my other plans having fallen through, I decided to go again. This time in Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena,…

Firstly, I’m almost finished my second edit of my NaNoWriMo…

Happy 2014!
Welcome to 2014! Like many of you, I spent last night out and about welcoming in the New Year. I decided at the last minute to join a group of people on the roof of a bar in Windsor, Melbourne, called Mother’s Milk. The group was one that I’m part of through Meetup, so I’d…

The time I discovered poetry videos on the internet
I spend more time than I would like trying to forget that I’m unsatisfied with where I am right now. Some of that is when I’m at home, alone, trying to find inspiration or meaning or rest. Some of it is when I should be working but I can’t bring myself to do it because…

New Year’s Resolutions: how did I go?
So, it’s getting to towards the end of the year and I’ve been thinking about what I hoped to achieve at the start of this year and thought I’d go through a bit of a performance assessment of my own ability to achieve my New Years’ Resolutions for 2013. For those of you who need…

Dear Universe
Over the last few weeks I’ve been thinking about what I want out of life; what I would like to have in order to feel really, truly happy. I have a few things in mind that I think will help so I’ve decided to write them down and ask the universe to bring them to…
