I wrote a piece for Rolling Stone's "National Affairs" section on wealth inequality in their September 2013 issue. I've only just got my hands on a copy of the PDF.
Wealth inequality feature for Rolling Stone
Men’s rights feature for The Sydney Morning Herald
Good Weekend commissioned me to write a feature on the men's rights movement around September last year. I didn't quite nail the magazine's style so the editor, Ben Naparstek, spiked it.

The sanitisation of Bathurst for The Punch

Clive Palmer feature for Rolling Stone
I wrote this cracking profile on the outspoken and baffling mining billionaire Clive Palmer for Rolling Stone Australia's August 2012 issue. My favourite bit is how my byline is flanked by two stars.
