A MacDowell and Hawthornden Fellow, she received grants from the Australia Council for the Arts and Academi to write poems towards her second book and from Wales Arts International to participate in Australian poetry events.

Holey
My next Writing Poetry workshop series starts tomorrow. It's got kinda a catchy title, I think — The Three Rs: Revise, Rewrite and Redraft.
'Course, most writers will know that those three Rs are basically variations of the one R, write? I mean, right?
I'm repeating myself. I've been reading Plath's poetry today. There are a lot of repetitions in it.
I used to know 'Daddy' and 'Lady Lazarus' off by heart [mostly because I had to learn poems for Speech & Drama assessment] but now my memory is holey.
Hope the workshops go okay. Working on the lesson plan now. Hark at her.
