Unspeakably stoked to have a RAVE REVIEW in @AurealisMag - which is one of the most successful and respected sci fi journals in Australia. Absolute pearler of a thing. Not sure what to do with all these positive emotions tbh.

Durries, Merry ANGSTMAS, everyone!
Just quietly: December 3 is going to be a VERY GOOD date for those who like their Aussie indie comedies about lovelorn horror obsessives living in Sydney's Kings Cross. ANGST is back, baby! FASHIONABLY LATE twenty-five years after its initial release.

Happy SECOND birthday to my SECOND novel, Emma After! If you're in the mood for some spooky shenanigans in rural Australia you could do a lot worse than picking up this supernatural romp. Happy to sort you out with a personally signed copy if you're keen too.

Nah yeah, this flick is fuggen grouse, eh.
Just a quick reminder that #TheSubstance is a "horny, hideous, slime-slicked nightmare ride through phobia, loathing and fleshy indignities" and the most strikingly original horror film in years. Out now in cinemas, Australia. Get on it. https://t.co/4AbXpASJMc

Happy THIRD BIRTHDAY to my first novel @StrayaBook! A risky, cross-genre experiment in post-apocalyptic insanity that has (somewhat inexplicably) found an audience. If you've read it and loved it, chuck up a rating on Goodreads, yeah? Cheers, ta! https://t.co/mR12PACyJP

A big, sloppy, sincere THANK YOU to all the legends who came to the ANGST (2000) screening at the Inner West Film Fest. It was a bloody hoot! The old girl has aged far better than I dared expect.

I sold my first screenplay, Angst, when I was 19-years-old. It was a wild, scary, exciting and surreal ride. Here's a little interview I did with @filmink about the experience. https://t.co/4eDbxewT9F

Grouse, eh.
24 (!) years ago, a film I wrote (Angst) was released in Australian cinemas. It managed to gain a small but loyal cult audience in the years since. Now you can see it on the big screen in 35mm, April 21st, at the Inner West Film Fest! https://t.co/Nte2UvDzbr
