1000 Women in Horror From the silent era until today, the nightmares that have haunted our screen have been sculpted and embodied by women, but many of those artists have gone....

🚨 Big news 5 years in the making: some friends and I made a documentary! 1000 WOMEN IN HORROR hits Shudder soon, directed by Donna Davies and inspired by my 2020 book of the same name

If you are in Australia, I hope you can make it to the world premiere at the Melbourne International Film Festival

Last night’s performance with Jane Stark was super fun. In the beautiful BEAUTIFUL Sullivan Hall in White Gum Valley. Thank you WWIM for hosting.

Book cover of Maus by Art Spiegelman

Frame from Maus by Art Spiegelman. - You've heard what they say about Auschwitz. Horrible, incredible things. - That can't be true!

Frame from Maus by Art Spiegelman. Art has drawn himself sitting at his drawing desk on a mound of corpses.

Page from Maus by Art Spiegelman. Art's father explains that not all prisoners died in the gas chambers. Some were burned alive while cremating the rest of the corpses.

Since there is now a concentration camp on US soil, I felt that it was time for me to read Maus by Art Spiegelman.

Is it too late to give Sacha Baron Cohen an Oscar for this? Not a damn lie told. 🇺🇸

Moving towards the solstice so had a joyful time in the music room with this maximalist synthesiser meditation. Longer vid on my Insta. @moogsynth.bsky.social @synthsky.bsky.social

My graphic novel is one of Alia Graphic’s notables for 2024! Thanks Alia for all the work you do promoting comics in libraries.

Activists like Greta Thunberg care more about fame than facts When it comes to the moral high road, the likes of Thunberg seek to occupy ALL of it, no matter how muddled the thinking. This is precisely the problem.

I really dislike this smug, disingenuous, baseless type of critique of Greta Thunberg. For all the millions of narcissists, egotists, charismatic villains and disrupters, she’s a bleeding heart with the courage to take action beyond words. www.smh.com.au/world/middle...

Imagine if we fired warning shots at visiting diplomats who wandered off the path. Then apologised for any inconvenience.

I love how Nutellex, the vegan margarine spread I use, asks on their packaging for us to follow their instagram as if it might be a very wonderful thing to do.
