I've never liked ticking clocks πŸ•› I'll remove batteries from any clock within hearing distance. My essay, "Pacific Standard Time" explores the deeper reason.

Forever grateful to Headland Journal for including me in Issue 19 back in 2023 ❀️🌟

The Sunday Essay: Lush and lost on Ponsonby Road Drinking wasn't just a pastime, it was my profession – and it got way out of control.

"At some point over the course of every drinking session, a responsible voice inside my hazy brain would cut me off from further drinks. But during the last two years of my life in Auckland, things began to darken, and it seemed the voice had abandoned me."
