I’m a writer, game designer, and curator from Adelaide, living in Walthamstow in London. I have a newsletter, and I’m intermittently on Instagram and Bluesky.

My novel The Husbands is out now. It’s a comedy about a woman whose attic starts creating an infinite supply of husbands.

I founded, and for five years directed, the experimental games festival Now Play This, and wrote the script for the award-winning videogame Dicey Dungeons. I’m interested in rules, play, cities, gardens, games that get people acting creatively, stories that buy into a ridiculous premise and then really commit to it, and art that gets people interacting with their surroundings in new ways.

If you’re looking for author photos, biographies of various lengths, or images of the book cover, they’re all in this folder. My agent is Veronique Baxter at David Higham Associates, and my film/tv agent is Nicky Lund, also at DHA (but rights for The Husbands have been sold).
