A fun part of a solo personal project website is making it the neon sparkle design situation in my heart. Made a few small updates to zinebakery.com: more sparkles on the logo; more baking puns + neon yellow-green (matches my hair streak!); purple glowing gradient buttons to themed zine collections:

Zine Bakery logo of zines popping out of a toaster with rainbow sparkles
Screenshot of top of ZineBakery.com site, showing the words "zine bakery" in bold black font with a border around each character in neon yellow-green, and the subtitle "Toasting fresh hot zines on culture, tech, & justice"
Screenshot of ZIneBakery.com homepages glowing purple gtadient buttons that link to various thematic collections of the zine catalogue, including "feminist tech" and "zines about zines"

I was invited to give an extended version of my Place in Fiction workshop as part of the SCBWI Europolitan virtual pre-conference. Should be fun! October 5, 2024, 4 pm ET/10 am CET. Organized by SCBWI Germany/Austria. Register here: https://buff.ly/3AGtjm4

Session 2 - Workshop - Place in Fiction with Anindita Basu Sempere

Setting is defined as the location and time period of a story, but a character's sense of place and interactions with places can add depth and nuance to a story, elevating setting beyond simple backdrop. How do place and character create each other? How does place reveal character and provide sources of conflict? How can experience of place add resonance to stories, in particular to endings?

Join us for an interactive workshop on place in fiction. We will discuss the difference between setting and place, look at examples from middle grade, young adult, and graphic novels, and write.

Great session at #dh2024#AI#digitalhumanities. Among the takeaways; even if US law doesn't (yet) regulate the use of AI in research and teaching contexts, EU law will, very thoughtfully, in very specific terms, and very soon.

A summary of European Union law governing use of AI in research and education.
