Last night I helped Graeme Simsion and Anne Buist launch their awesome new book, The Glass House, at Harry Hartog bookshop in Canberra. We were joined by my friend and three times coauthor the amazing Barb Cook. All in all it was a great night. Congratulations to Graeme and Anne!

Took Sunflower to the vet to get her claws clipped and her worming tablet. She is the most chilled cat I know and is currently asleep on my feet as I work and I got home ten minuets ago. Love that smoochy cat!!

Kathy Lette with Tanya and my kids books! I hope she found them helpful. They are good books. Although I would say that because I co-wrote them!

Sometimes I say to myself 'Haha! You're Yenn Purkis' and have a bit of a giggle! What did my mum used to say 'Little things amuse little minds' :)

I came out as non-binary six years ago. What a wonderful journey is has been and continues to be. I love my identity so much and I love how I express myself in fashion. Someone once told me they love my 'sweet enby style' which pretty much made my year!

Just in case anyone missed it.... here is my second TEDx talk! It is all about gender diversity and autism. I love it so much and feel very honoured to get to stand on the TEDx red circle and talk about ideas worth spreading twice. youtube.com/watch?v=gSC1P4…
