About me/Contact

author of genderqueer/nonbinary stories

I’m an independent novelist with a particular interest in x-jenda stories set in East and Southeast Asia. Born in Parramatta, Australia, I joined the navy at fifteen and spent my formative years visiting places “up top”. After a long spell in Melbourne I once again departed the Anglosphere, to live in Cambodia, China, Viet Nam, and Japan.

I’m a writer. I spend most of my time with my characters, when I’m not engaged in day to day living with my friends and family. That said, I’m happy to hear from readers, but I’m wary of Big Tech and privacy, both yours and mine. If that’s an issue for you, I can be contacted on:
