He was a member of the Patrick White Award Panel, 1987-1989, and of the Library Council of New South Wales, 1987-1997. He has been a contributing editor for the Jesuit magazine Eureka Street since its first publication in 1991.

Windsor has published three collections of short stories, The Harlots Enter First (1982), Memories of the Assassination Attempt (1985) and The Mansions of Bedlam : Stories and Essays (2000), a novella That Fierce Virgin (1998), and three volumes of autobiographical memoir, Family Lore (1990), later published as the revised edition I'll Just Tell You This, Heaven Where the Bachelors Sit (1996) and I Asked Cathleen to Dance (1999).
