Clem Byard

I’m a writer and former oncology nurse living on Wurundjeri Land in Naarm (Melbourne, Australia).

I write HookTurn, an Exploration of South Eastern Australia. You can also follow HookTurn on Bluesky.

My interests include:

  • Australian folklore, poetry and film
  • English language haiku
  • Gothic novels
  • Psychedelic music

You can find my brief biography and a list of my other research and writing here: Research and Writing.

I create themed playlists under the username Marsyas Browne on Apple Music and Spotify.
