Dear friends, Happy New Year. In these uncertain and challenging times, Sirry @ProfAlang and I know it’s more important than ever to live in the moment and hold our loved ones close. So, we surprised our annual NYE party guests with a wedding. We are now legally married❤️❤️❤️

Why I'm not cynical – "There's this tendency in the far right to encourage us all to give up on human connection and entirely be self-serving and cynical about the notion of connection." –Tilda Swinton Interview from NYT Podcast ~47:00 youtu.be/4jURdx2pR70?si… via @YouTube

A recent 5-star review of my #memoir: "Absolutely masterful writing style ... I was unable to put this book down. If the scale went to 6 stars, that's how I'd rate it ... Unflinchingly honest ... many moments of dry humour ... poignant, heart-wrenching." goodreads.com/book/show/1363…

Me and my baby at the beginning of today's (my) birthday rampage: coffee and pastries from Two Chaps in Marrickville, followed by a book spree at Gleebooks Dulwich Hill @gleebooksdh, then chocolates from Belle Fleur (they're amazing)

@TriciaDearborn A surgeon in a hospital ER told me this very thing last Saturday. Unbelievable. I took N95s into the surgery with me and asked the anesthesiologist to please ask the surgical team to wear them. They did. 😷😷😷😷 Thank you for your tireless COVID-education posts, @TriciaDearborn

My Guardian article summarises a few key things I learned when helping my dad, who had #dementia. For more on that rollercoaster of a year, check out my #memoir The Year My Family Unravelled (Affirm Press). "A compelling memoir about family" – Who magazine amzn.to/3X90mHl
