I would like to acknowledge the original storytellers and traditional owners of the lands on which I live and tell stories, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. I pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, recognising the connection to lands, waters, and communities; and their knowledge embedded forever within the Aboriginal Custodianship of Country.

I pay my respects to Elders past, present, and future. Always was, always will be.
