Some of my most talked about work
The American Remake Of ‘The Slap’ Is Here, And It’s Kind Of Terrible
For Junkee: Taking into account the nature of the plot and the fact that the novel was able to capture specific parts of Australian society and culture that hadn’t been properly explored before, it’s no surprise that the new Americanised series, which premiered last week on NBC, has received mixed reviews
After Floods and Destruction, the Boatshed Woronora Is Back With a Fresh Look and Plenty of Crowd-Pleasing Eats
For Broadsheet: The riverside cafe and canoe-hire outlet in Sydney’s south dishes up maritime vibes via tiger prawns and handmade linguine with chilli and confit garlic, and classic fish’n’chips. Plus, there’s a generous menu of hearty cafe favourites.
