BLACKLIGHT: A First Nations Dialogue

Writes ONE thing, thinks she’s a writer…​

Here’s the blurb: BLACKLIGHT is Western Sydney's first definitive anthology of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander writing produced entirely by First Nations arts practitioners and writers, published by Sweatshop: Western Sydney Literacy Movement. This powerful new book will feature over two hundred essays, short stories, vignettes and poems which have been developed by First Nations writers over the past ten years.

Somehow I qualify, and editor Hannah Donnelly conned me into writing something. It’s getting launched at Sydney Writers Festival on 21 May 2022, and I’m speaking on a panel alongside Jasmine Seymour, Travis De Vries, and Steven Ross with Sweatshop General Manager, Winnie Dunn. FUN! *(fucking terrifying)
