Tony Hughes-d’Aeth had just launched the Magazine, and we were in the middle of celebrating Catherine Noske’s editorship. I was standing alongside Josephine Taylor and Melissa Kruger. And I knew I had to find some small words to pay just tribute to Kate’s work. None were coming. The notes I’d made didn’t feel right.' (Editorial introduction) 2023 pg. 187
