Since 1986 I have been writing for publication, my stories and reviews appearing in newspapers and magazines in Australia, New Zealand, the UK and the USA. I've been lucky enough to conduct lengthy interviews with some of my all-time favourite artists and in doing so have been able to establish friendships that endure today. I've also extracted stories from my travels, travelled to write stories, and written down some of my observations of life and relationships.

From this page you can choose from a selection of these pieces, and in some cases also read the full unedited interview transcript. There are also a few of my unpublished writings that I figure deserve to be perused. Happy reading!*
