Pinching myself. My piece placed 3rd in the Strange Days Award, judged by... Helen Garner 😍 "I was struck by its light touch, the vividness of its physical world, its sense of breathless waiting & then of release & gratitude." Gulp. Thx @mvlibraries libraries.mvcc.vic.gov.au/strange-days-l…

Beautiful Bay Run, last little sesh before Sunday's Half Marathon (21 + 2=23km) Great Ocean Road Run. Taking it easy. #running

@Bundogs Magic place, though can be a somewhat strange social scene! 😂😬

@subbie Magic pics 👌

Dawn run, breaking through the morning cobwebs crossing the path of (B)illionaire's Walk #Portsea #running

"Everyone needs to take a step back & actually look at what writers’ festivals are, what we do & what’s at the core of it, which is literature. If you think it’s damaging for writers to be able to speak their mind, that is an alarming state of affairs." theguardian.com/books/2026/apr…

@1116sen @PaulNAustin @Quartermain10 No music! My AppleWatch warned me of excessive exposure 93dB at a GWS game last year. It's damaging to hearing. It's also significantly higher than the noise of a normal conversation which is ~60dB. What do you reckon @AndyMaherDFA ? Should we chat to mates & fam, or hear noise?

Quarters just saying what we’re all thinking 😂 Music after goals or no music after goals? #AFL

@jess_marnich Achilles is so tricky I hear. Glad you're on the mend. Thanks re pics. Camera is the iPhone 17Pro. Has decent zoom and nice clarity. I'm sure there are some other fun photographic features I should try out.

@subbie Oh Anna! I feel yr pain. Injury is v tough to cope with 😞 I’m still very weary of overloading my Achilles (had a tear). Keep going, but yes it’s slow. Your photos are just beautiful though. What camera or phone do you use?

Swimming scenes #Bondi Watched the Bondi Salties strike out yesterday & the Icebergs swimmers in their element. Five months since my last swim & I can't quite believe I used to do that, swim out beyond the surfers & swim laps at that pool. Slowly, slowly, back into it #swimming

@Bundogs Thanks for that! Yep, I'll count this.

@subbie Getting in counts 😉

@Bundogs Thanks! Not quite back, though I 'swam' 100m wearing sunglasses later that morning! Glorious feeling. Missing it a lot.

@subbie Welcome back 🥽

Early morning, back at BayRun, building up the distance a bit. #running Bonus: Drummoyne Pool is still open throughout April, exciting though I still can't swim!✨

Morning #running #elwood

@wtb_Michael Oh that is so exciting Melissa has a new book out, and that you have a copy! I agree, Smokehouse was magnificent.

Someone at UQP still thinks I'm influential - so excited to read this, Smokehouse was sublime

Heard a visitor outside. They are my 'fear, meet love' birds. #currawong #invitation #cradlemountain

@wtb_Michael Next level! 👏👏

We've been doing track sessions every tuesday as we build up to the ballarat half and i'm so thrilled at how much faster my 400m reps are getting

@JoTregear @Ticketek_AU How frustrating, Jo. I hope you got it sorted. I had a similar thing happen this week with Myki cards, same, same, no balance showing even though money taken, ffs. Enjoy the footy! Not my fave teams he he, but have fun.

@Ticketek_AU Round 1 & shouldn’t be surprised .. but of course can’t get into my account to share or download tickets for tonight @ MCG Been trying since yesterday Same, same every year! Telling me I have no tickets in my account (I do!) or Try Again. Have tried again 100 times!!

'My #tinnitus has become a barometer for my stress, and while always present, it flares up in times of anxiety, reminding me to slow down.' Interesting piece by Freya Bennett, given my recent constant tinnitus. Definitely *not* music to my ears. 📢theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

@troycassardaley From Pt Lonsdale, Victoria, some shaky iPhone snaps taken standing next to my shaky 90-yr-old mum. She made sure to point out: 'see the eyes of the man in the moon!' 🌙 #BloodMoon

Please share your shots of this tonight I hope I can stay up!!!

George Saunders, A Swim in the Pond in the Rain, on Russian short story writers: '...this is a resistance literature...the resistance in these stories is quiet, at a slant, & comes from perhaps the most radical idea of all: that every human being is worthy of attention...'

@wtb_Michael Amazing! Look at these two #eucalypts bathed in morning sun glow. I saw them on my run–yes, it can happen anytime! I doubled back to admire & photograph. (Don't know their species?)

Saw a good tree (river red gum). This can happen anywhere, any time
