My books include Nightingale, Trick of the Light and Ordinary Matter, which won the 2021 Steele Rudd Award for a Short Story Collection and was shortlisted for the Barbara Jefferis Award. My short fiction and essays have been published in Meanjin, Overland, The Saturday Paper, Island, Australian Financial Review, The Big Issue Fiction Edition and Griffith Review. I have won the Josephine Ulrick Prize for Literature, the Margaret River Short Story Competition, the Neilma Sidney Short Story Prize and the Fair Australia Prize for Fiction. I have a PhD in Creative Writing and Literary Studies from QUT.
In 2021, I was the inaugural Writer in Residence at the Centre for Critical and Creative Writing at the University of Queensland.
