Week 2 – Photo a day Challenge
Again, slightly late, but y’know, whatever. As promised, here are my photos, posted originally on my Instragram #dragongirlau (with my phone camera because I’m too lazy to transfer photos from my proper camera to my phone so I can Instragram them).

Shortlisted!
A few weeks ago I entered a couple of shots into an amateur photography competition run by Australian Photography Magazine, mostly just for fun. They sent out an email announcing the winner a couple of days ago, and I only just opened it up to have a look at the shortlisted photos. To my surprise,…

Watching Movies: Nymphomaniac
It’s been three days since I watched Lars Von Trier’s ‘Nymphomaniac’ Vol I and II. It has taken me this long to work out what I want to say, and even so I’m just hoping I’ll be able to make some sort of coherent statement about it by the end of this post. These two films,…

In which I am a groupie

This was staged as a play in the Donmar Warehouse in London, filmed, and shown at the Nova. ‘Coriolanus’ is one of Shakespeare’s lesser known plays, and is a political…

And then there were two…
Hello world! In the last thirty days I have undertaken the massive, mind-boggling, word-murdering challenge that is NaNoWriMo and I have won. I am now the proud owner of my second novel length manuscript. Currently entitled ‘Adventures in Mediocrity’ is it about 55,000 words long. This is not a long novel, as novels go, however…

Fairfax 1440 Photographic Essay Competition
I think I mentioned recently having entered the Fairfax 1440 Photographic Essay competition. It was to be announced at the end of June, so given that I haven’t been notified that I won I am going to assume that I didn’t. Since I didn’t win, I feel I can now publish the photographic essay that…
