My writing comes to you from beautiful, unceded palawa country/Tasmania.
I’m an advocate for the power of our imagination to help us build a better future, because all good change starts with imagination.
In my imagination, the future is local.
I imagine edible things growing in every yard, and on every nature strip. Communities who are activated and sharing what’s abundant, and governments and industry at every level putting people and the planet before profit.
And all this stuff is no longer called climate action + social justice, it’s just normal everyday goings-on.
So engaging my imagination + creativity to make that a reality is my quest.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Roughly once or twice a month I write a newsletter. Sometimes it’s a more in-depth newsletter where we get into the weeds, or it could be an update from the studio with some podcast or book recommendations that I’ve been getting into, that I think you’ll like too. You can read an ever-evolving list of recommendations here.
THIS NEWSLETTER IS FREE
I’m super happy to be writing for free here on Substack. I appreciate the pledges that some readers have sent me over time, but I don’t intend on turning on paid subscriptions for the foreseeable future.
If you’d like to support my work financially, you can join the Radical Postcard Club, via Patreon. Fun things happen there. I mail out physical (and radical) postcards every month.
ABOUT NAT
I live and work on the eastern shore of nipaluna/Hobart, putting down roots + connecting with community, after spending a couple of decades in other parts of the world, putting my energy and imagination into designing and storytelling for a better future.
On any given day I could be getting up to:
+ Editorial + commercial photography
+ Writing my newsletter
+ Designing + making art
+ Volunteering at my local community garden + repair cafe
+ Visible mending
+ Food growing + chicken watching
+ Hanging with my fam, sometimes pottering at home, sometimes adventuring.
You can read a little bit more about me here.

I hope you enjoy my dispatches. Really looking forward to connecting with you.
I live and work on beautiful Mumirimina Country, on the eastern shore of nipaluna / Hobart. I deeply respect First Nations peoples, and their elders, who are the Traditional Owners. They are the knowledge + story keepers, and their continued intimate connection to the land is vital to the health of the ongoing story of this country.
Always was, always will be.
