She was commissioned by the Australian Space Agency to write poetry about diversity and inclusion in the space workforce. Her essays have been published by Science Fiction Film and Television, The Journal of Feminist Scholarship, the National Gallery of Victoria, and The Conversation. She is currently working on an academic monograph.
Bronwyn's poetry has appeared in Borderless: A transnational anthology of feminist poetry, Best Australian Poems, Meanjin, Southerly, Strange Horizons and Cordite. She has won the Val Vallis Award and been shortlisted for the Speculate Prize, Dorothy Hewett Award, Judith Wright Poetry Prize, Newcastle Poetry Prize, Bridport Prize, and Montreal International Poetry Prize. Her debut poetry collection, In Bed with Animals, is published by Recent Work Press and her science-fiction verse novel, Between Worlds, is forthcoming from University of Western Australia Publishing.
Bronwyn has worked as an editor and writer on children's books for Penguin in the UK and lifestyle magazines in Sydney. She has been an arts administrator for non-profits Writers Victoria and Australian Poetry at Melbourne's Wheeler Centre for Books and Ideas, and has taught English literacy in remote Aboriginal communities across Cape York and Arnhem Land.
