Absolutely shocked/stoked (shoked?) to have a story shortlisted for the Aurealis Awards!

It’s a new one about a wannabe writer who survives the apocalypse by accident, and then travels a wasteland in search of readers for his excruciating memoir.

So, I need reading glasses. Apparently not uncommon for eyeballs in their 40s.

It’s actually reassuring to learn my body is falling apart at the standard rate.

Russia invaded. Russia is the aggressor. Russia is the dictatorship.

Spread the truth, not Trump’s lies.

Another toxic legacy of coal mining - ruining our drinking water along with our habitable climate

Shame on @MineralsCouncil for even defending this practice

Shocking and heartbreaking

Actually Andre was my first editor when I wrote the environment column for @VoiceworksMag maybe 15 years ago. Amazing to see his work being recognised like this, and his speech on Palestine should unsettle complacent, gutless politicians who continue to defend weekly atrocities

[Greg Foyster @GregFoyster]

Bravo Andre Dao! Well deserved award for a writer who has spent decades shining a light on oppression, presenting uncomfortable truths with uncanny clarity and elegance. https://t.co/A63IIdgWZ5

@wayneamarshall1 @roffwrites @GriffithReview Thanks Wayne - looking forward to reading your next book too. Shirl was extraordinary.
