Because words matter.

We share words that question, reflect, and imagine.In print, online, in person.

For purpose.

For unheard voices and untold stories. For communities that are global and local. For artists and writers and poets and creators. For readers. For the curious and worried and skeptical and imaginative. For sustainability. For brave compassion. For the future. For all of us.

We'll have more to share soon.

We live, work, research, write and share stories largely in Naarm (Melbourne) across the lands of the Wurundjeri Woiworung and Boonwurrung people.In the spirit of reconciliation and with hope for a future that hears the voice of First Nations' Peoples, Determined Ink wholly and respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout the continent of Australia and their connections to land, sea and community.As the oldest continuing culture on earth, Australia's First Peoples have been truth telling and sharing their stories across these lands for millennia.We pay our deepest respects to their Elders past, present and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
