Queensland Poetry Festival



This Wednesday I leave for Brisbane for the Queensland Poetry Festival! I'm really excited about this event. I have several readings, one panel and on the night I arrive I'm co-hosting a slam with Brisbane's very own Ghostboy. If you're in the Brisbane area and feel like checking out some of the festival go here and have a look at the program online. The poster above is only for one of the many events happening over the week. Brisbane here I come!

Death To Your Dreams at the Overload Poetry Festival.

Just a quick note to say that as a part of the Overload Poetry Festival, I'll be performing with The Mime Set at Dante's this Friday night August 18, 150 Gertrude Street (cnr Napier Street), Fitzroy. It's an early show, show starts at 8 and will be all done by 10, so you can still go out and do whatever it is you normally do on a Friday night. And it's only $6 to get in. Would love to see you there. SMW.

I heart Manchester Lane







Here's my long overdue post on my last gig with the Mime Set at the lush setting of Manchester Lane. The gig went exceptionally well and I'd like to take a moment to thank anybody reading this who happened to be there on the night for coming along to support us. It was a great crowd. I felt so blessed to share a stage with five incredibly talented musicians such as Andrew Watson, Sam Wareing, Chris Chapple, Justin Avery and Jon Shannon. It was the third time we've performed the show and definitely the best we've performed so far. I also felt confident this time that I wasn't going to forget any of my poetry! This allowed me to take my time and enjoy the gig a lot more too. (I even added some terrible dance moves at no extra charge.)
