Velvet Ballroom was the very first poem I had accepted by Poetry, Australia published in the Winter Edition 1991. I saw the guy I wrote about a few years later at a Gay Nightclub with his boyfriend! No wonder I was attracted to him as I was out by then too. Still to this day he has no idea I wrote a poem about him, let alone had it published by a literary journal. Shush, let's keep it between us.

Blood Orange Periphery

42 parts Ongoing

My suicide had been two years in the making when I decided not to follow through at the last minute. Over the past decade, I've written poems, books, short stories, fanfiction and hundreds of thousands of words, but nothing felt complete. This collection of selected works was meant to be my final offering- the only thing ready for posthumous publication. Blood Orange Periphery includes poems written in the months preceding the end-that-didn't-happen, some of my best teenage scribbles, and journal entries that chronicle the transition from death-planning, to recalibrating life.
