ABOUT ME

Hi! I’m Natalie, a Brisbane-based creative working in journalism, media relations and the live performing arts.

This website primarily features my creative writing. I developed a reasonable-ish profile in the 2000s when my Game of Thrones “Raven On” recaps (published on Brisbane Times and other then-Fairfax Media mastheads) routinely went viral. Since that show ended, I’ve turned my hand to a few other shows, most notably House of the Dragon.

In 2020 I used lockdown to write a James Bond film retrospective. Life got somewhat back to normal before I could finish, and I am yet to write about the Daniel Craig era. However, I did cover those films on my “Raven On” podcast, along with my co-host and best friend, the much-missed Stuart Layt. We delved into a number of pop culture franchises, and I’m so glad we have so much of Stu’s voice, opinion and wonderful laugh preserved.

I am working to update this site with more professional credits and history - at this point, I’ve done a whole bunch of cool stuff.

PATREON

My recaps will always be free to read on this website. If you find my writing enjoyable and valuable, and if you have the means, you can sign up to my Patreon. Currently Patrons are charged monthly in Australian dollars. I am so grateful to all of my Patreons - they’re truly wonderful people and have kept my spirits up tremendously.

PAYPAL

If you'd like to pay me for my work, but don't want to sign up to Patreon, I have created a PayPal link that you can use as a tip jar. 

SOCIAL MEDIA

My Facebook page needs some love and attention, but when I am producing content I do post it over there. If you want to contact me, messaging through the Facebook page is the best as I generally respond to that the fastest.

I'm @girlclumsy on Twitter, Instagram, BlueSky and TikTok.

ON STAGE

I write, produce, direct and perform in a fair amount of theatre, comedy and improvisation. My company is called Act React, and we have a Facebook page and an Instagram you can follow too.
