You're reminding me of a comedy Reel I saw recently that riffs on Furlong's flexy pronunciation of 'Nicaragua'
but as I am a sincere Terminator tragic who rewatched the OG movie last week, I'm moved by Sarah driving south, haltingly speaking Spanish from a phrasebook, while her son grows up fluent

I sometimes wonder if my views on what's appropriate in an author bio are too rigid, but I never mention my personal life, any "former" role, habits/hobbies, or laundry lists of places where my "work has appeared". My bio is more about my approach to my work & the topics/themes I'm interested in

Just looked up the site and it doesn’t seem Australian to me: the cofounders are French and the team seems to focus a lot on the US (no mention of Australia in any of their bios)
Of course it might still work on Australian products, though
