Scarlet’s Bio:

Born in Melbourne, a student of love,

Back from the dead twice after fighting a space Emperor and a hell God, she knows that it's not about how you go down it's about how you get back up with your ruined mascara.

Her greatest accomplishment is a toss up between finding five bucks on the way here and attending a polygamous vegan communist bake sale to protest the closing of Sharon Stones legs.

She has not been convicted of trying to overthrow the North Korean government, for using a death ray on a South Australian police car, or of stabbing a swordsman to death with a biro.

She's your favourite sex workers' favourite poet, the tenacious, the impossible, her birth certificate says her sex is female proving that words can change the world.

Four time runner up for Melbourne's angriest lesbian.
