Bio
Just a human writing stuff. She thinks sad songs are better, that that laughing is close to crying, that good spelling isn't proof of intelligence but she does enjoy the odd semi colon.

here we was fucken great. There's jist us here now. I think it was Daz who finished ‘em off - I thought might ‘ave been Trent but he's a lazy bugger and can hardly be arsed to git off lounge unless they’s food involved. An he’s mostly off his face smoking any shit he can find. So it must ‘ave been Daz. He’s the one who most gives a crap about keeping the land vermin free. Weren’t me - I jus been here in the after times - lucky to git taken in. Must ave bin tweny days give or take, wandering in the desert - ya’ couldn’t live in towns unless you had a wollap of cash only fat cats is there and thems that wait on ‘em.

Honeymoon Bay
We call this ‘the Wild Side’ of Moreton Island. The eastern beach, like many other beaches in Australia, has long stretches of white sand. One side, dunes topped with dry hardy shrub grasses; the other side ocean endlessly blue rolling waves, a little angry. We don’t swim here often. It has dangerous rips and a certain sharkyness.

She Ain’t Pretty
She Ain’t Pretty (Thank god) Last night, I watched Beyonce’s Homecoming. I don’t know why; I’m not a huge fan or anything, but it’s good keep up with what the kids like. I like to be au current ["current" in French]. There is no denying she’s a goddess, a helluva performer. I hadn’t seen her much since the "Single Ladies" days, and her style has evolved. She still has a sassy strut and a stripper-esque krump, but now her and her bevy of back-up dancing girls have this rough, masculine thrust and jerk. “Suck my balls,” they chant as they do a manly double-arm crotch chop. Some of the moves—feet flexed, knees askew—were not coy, not sexy, not beguiling, but rather were aggressive and ugly. And I liked it. These "ladies" were not accessories, not there to titillate and tease, this was #metoo, owning their space and bodies, unapologetically with humour, defiance, and commanding attention.
