Hey so I went off Insta for a while because I was finding it a bit too much with everything going on and also all the things not going on. So maybe I’m back for a bit, we’ll see. But if you want to reach me, one of the other 87 messaging apps is a better choice (honestly I’m still pretty wedded to email). Hope you are as okay as can be. . PS. These birds are from Australian artist collaboration Eggpicnic and they are fabulous.

After a month of bad fatigue, and cancelling pretty much everything out of necessity before being told to continue cancelling everything out of precaution, I’ve been feeling burnt out. Then this showed up at my door yesterday to brighten up life, care of a far-away but very close friend. Thanks so much @rachita_goddessita, small gestures can make an enormous difference. 💕 #chronicillness #chronicfatiguesyndrome #spoonie

The latest issue of @statelibrarynsw magazine has an article I wrote about a fascinating Armenian family tree I discovered in their archives, which dates back to a marriage in ‘The Perfect Date of the Year 1555’. Huge thanks to @cclperkins for putting me onto this piece of NSW history. #writersofinstagram #australianauthor #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #writerslife #armeniangenocide #armenia

Sharing some reciprocal love this week! The Nancys by @rwrmcdonald is as quirky and fun as its eyeball-patterned pink cover suggests 👁👁👁 #australianfiction #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writers #bookcover #bibliophile #bookstagram #bookish #read #instabook #bookaddict #bookpic #australianauthor #writing #authors #writer #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #writerslife #reading #book

I lost 110 hours to illness in February. That's nearly 25% of an average adult's waking hours. In January I 'only' lost 89 hours. The past month has definitely been harder. I cancelled a lot of plans, including dinner with friends who are permanently moving overseas. I felt frustrated. I didn't miss a single hour of work for my job, however, and I'm proud of that. At the start of the year, I said that I thought I was ready to keep track of how much time I'm losing because the numbers wouldn't be so depressing/horrifying; this is worse than I thought. I hope March is better. #chronicillness #chronicfatiguesyndrome #chronicfatigue #cfs #losthoursproject

Amazing to see my little book hanging out with works from Australian authors @anna_downes_writer, @jppomare and @petronella_mc, and artfully posted by @rwrmcdonald! #australianfiction #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writers #bookcover #bibliophile #bookstagram #bookish #read #instabook #bookaddict #bookpic #australianauthor #writing #authors #writer #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #writerslife #reading #book

Publisher sent through my copy edit and I’m definitely not trying to hide it under a giant coffee, nope, not at all ... #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writers #australianauthor #writing #authors #writer #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #writerslife

This week I got to chat on Radio National’s The Bookshelf about @kileyreid’s debut novel Such a Fun Age. Highly recommended, smart and fast-paced. Plus the hosts talk Arivand Adiga’s Amnesty and Anne Enright’s Actress. #australianfiction #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #writers #bibliophile #bookstagram #bookish #read #instabook #bookaddict #australianauthor #writing #authors #writer #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #writerslife #reading #book
