Beejay Silcox is a Canberra-based writer and critic. Her reviews and cultural commentary regularly appear in national arts publications, and are increasingly finding an international audience, including in the Times Literary Supplement, The Guardian, and The New York Times. Beejay came to the page circuitously; she has worked as a seafood waitress, an agony aunt, a criminologist, a strategic-policy boffin, a corporate ghost-writer, and an accidental economist. It's better for everyone involved that she now reads for a living.
