Hey folks! I hope you’re all doing really well. I’ve published two pieces of short fiction this year (amid raising a baby and working; I’m quite proud of this achievement!).

‘The Station’ is about a pregnant scientist who arrives in a dusty desert town to take up her position at the mysterious ‘Station’, only to be thwarted by locals and a scheduled lockdown and blackout. It’s inspired by The Castle by Franz Kafka, and is quite possibly an extract of a longer work… It’s out now in Meanjin 82.4 Summer 2023.

‘In line’ is about a person who sells their place in line for a living. It was published in June in Paperback Bookshop‘s Salon Series pamphlet alongside Anna MacDonald’s interview with me about Moon Sugar. They may still have some copies in store at 60 Bourke St, Melbourne.

I hope you enjoy them.
