Beau SYW

Beau SYW is a neurodivergent Wiradjuri writer based in Naarm. He writes quirky stories about quirky people with a focus on YA fiction. Under the pen/stage name, Beau SYW, you can experience his words weaved together in raw chaotic poetry. In 2020, he was awarded an EWF At Home Residency and a Varuna Fellowship for 2021. You can read his work in Griffith Review, Rabbit and [untitled] and follow him on social media @WhoIsBeauWindon. If you see him out in the wild, approach with caution and some form of choc orange treat.
