Writers Cell residency

I will shortly be taking up a cell at Old Melbourne Gaol for two months, which is offered by the National Trust (Victoria) in collaboration with the Victorian Writers Centre.  I have been doing quite a bit of writing in recent years,  came runner up in a couple of writing competitions last year (Nillimbik Ekphrasis poetry competition and Moreland Short Story Competition). The subject matter and sensibility of my writing is the same as my art practice: a playful take on history. In my temporary cell I will be working on my poetry manuscript All That Remains (working title) and a novella set in an historic house museum.
