What a deadly celebration it's been. 🥳 NAIDOC Week 2024. The @unimelbMSPGH choir sang Wominjeka Birrarunga (welcome [you to] river country) by Deborah Cheetam powerfully. And the @onemda morning tea was delicious. Thank you. 😊

What is writing? It's not editing. It's not formatting. It's not reading. It's not emails, twitter. It's putting words on the page. #TurbochargeYourWriting #PhDchat #ECRchat #postdoc #acwri
