On Thursday night I reached a milestone I’ve always wanted: winning the Thomas Shapcott Poetry Prize! This means I’ll have a published book ready for you to read in a year’s time, thanks to University of Queensland Press.
Here’s a photo of myself and 2016 Arts Queensland Thomas Shapcott Poetry Prize winner Shastra Deo. UQP will launch Shastra’s debut collection, The Agonist, today at Queensland Poetry Festival.
Hi pals!
I’ll be at Zine and Indie Comic Symposium this weekend! I’ll have all my zines for sale, including my new one ‘Diary of a Lavender Plant’.
Plus, to accompany my succulent zines, I’ll have some newly propagated succulent babes for sale! You can grab them for 4 bucks each or $5 with ‘I Heart Succulents Volume 1’. There’s only a handful of them, so get in quick!
I’ll also be on two panels …
Saturday: Our Stories, Our Zines
Sunday: Zineside-Out: the Woolf Pack Panel at ZICS 2017
And of course I’ll be partying at ZICS ⅄┴ɹ∀Ԁ Boat!
See you all there 🙂 🙂
You can now buy Diary of a Lavender Plant on my Etsy store. I’ll also be giving some to Junky Comics today and selling copies at ZICS, Brisbane.
