A fantastic afternoon of storytime fun with Dr. Susan Wardell, #RuthPaul , #MichaelaKeeble & 🌴OKERAU BROWN for the Dunedin Writers and Readers Festival at DN Public Libraries. Thank you to all of you who came along and joined in 🤩

Very excited to be part of this panel with Landfall NZ editor Lynley Edmeades/Lynley Edmeades, Michaela Keeble and Susan Wardell/Dr. Susan Wardell on the intricacies and perils of essay writing. Thank you Dunedin Writers Fest OtagoUniversityPress!! dunedinwritersfestival.co.nz/tickets/strong…

The incredible Dunedin Writers Fest programme is live! I’m chuffed to bits to be hosting the Pakiwaitara: Children’s Storytime Sessions, presented by City of Literature, on the 14th. Our awesome, award-winning kidlit line up includes Dr. Susan Wardell, #RuthPaul , #MichaelaKeeble , 🌴OKERAU BROWN…

Congratulations to our very own Susan Wardell (Dr. Susan Wardell) on picking up the NZSA Best First Book Award! 😍🤩

Question... why do my attempts to collate a poetry collection always end up with me lying on the floor?

🎉 We're honoured and excited to have received funding from Creative New Zealand for our next two special issues of Headland. Our Speculative Fiction issue is currently open to submissions and due to this funding, we will be able to pay NZ$150 for each piece we accept.

*DEADLINE EXTENDED*

The deadline for submitting abstracts for the ASAA/NZ 'Engaging Anthropology' conference has been extended to 28th July.

I'm so excited to be hosting this. We already have awesome presentations flowing in. Including creative formats.

Eternal poet question: Am I just writing the same poem over and over again, with variations in form and narrative?

Closing on Friday. Send me your poems, lovely people!
