- Best of Australian Poems 2021 kindly included my poem ‘sandwiches‘ (previously published in Overland).
- Australian Book Review published my poem ‘Turning the Indiana Bell’.
- Rabbit No. 35 – Architecture included my poem ‘Blueprint: Thorpe Street’.
- I performed at Queerstories x QAGOMA (as part of APT10).
- With the generous support of the Lord Mayor’s Young and Emerging Arts Fellowship, I was able to travel to Canberra for Poetry on the Move (Centre for Creative and Cultural Research in the Faculty of Arts and Design, University of Canberra) in September.

The Lord Mayor’s Young and Emerging Artists Fellowships are an initiative of Brisbane City Council.
ALSO…
- Wonderful poets Rebecca Cheers and Mitch Cave published their debut collections with Rabbit Poetry: No Camellias and How to Eat Fire and Why (respectively).
