Beejay Silcox is a notoriously honest literary critic. Her reviews and cultural commentary regularly appear in national arts publications, and are increasingly finding an international audience. Beejay has stories to tell. She eloped to Las Vegas, escaped from quicksand, and drove to Timbuktu in a car held together with a bra-strap. Beejay is the Artistic Director of Canberra Writers Festival, and the current chair of the Stella Prize judging panel.
