'We’ve come a long way in the representation of sex work in Australian literature. In 2016 Melbourne Writers Festival (MWF) programmed a panel comprising anti-sex-work campaigners to discuss the ‘devastating impact of prostitution’ without any actual sex workers present. And I remember—as a closeted sex worker wanting to be a writer at the time—watching the sex-worker community call this out, while for the most part people in literary circles did not seem to notice or care.'  (Introduction)
