Zadnja epizoda 5. sezone! Pozdravljamo se preko ljeta, ali to ne znači da nemamo već planove za jesen i 6. sezonu. Malo pričamo o onome što nas čeka, malo o nekim projektima koje smo trenutno radili, a malo o preporukama za ljetno čitanje.Korisni linkovi:Sanja Kolenko:IG: @sanja.slavic.art https://www.instagram.com/sanja.slavic.art/Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/sanjaartjpgostali linkovi: ⁠https://linktr.ee/sanja_art.jpg⁠Writers in Publishing Summit Rijeka 2026: https://shtriga.com/wipsummitrijeka2026-home/S04E09: Mirna i Ružica o newsletter marketingu:https://youtu.be/mG5PojLRdEs?si=X-isIns3-crT9MKzS04E08: Ružica i Mirna o komercijalnom pisanju:https://youtu.be/UYzJTIxcEEQ?si=81VtzxR3XMzAnHbCIsle of Wonders Live 2025: Jelena i Antonio o europskom srednjem vijeku u fantastici:https://youtu.be/IdkWhdrvliI?si=4zbWqYzioPTjbFLCSlavic Supernatural Vol. 2:https://shtriga.com/slavic-supernatural-volume-2-an-anthology-of-slavic-inspired-speculative-fiction/konvencija Liburnicon: ⁠https://liburnicon.com/U ovoj epizodi spominju se:Sanja Kolenko: The Folklore Summer Journal, ulje od kantariona, čaj od kantariona i stolisnika, muke po (tradicionalnom) izdavaštvu, character art (ilustracija likova), Writers in Publishing Summit 2026 konferencija u Rijeci, Mirna Unuk, Liburnicon, odmetnik, antijunak, konvencija Isle of Wonders, Jelena Dunato, Antonio Filipović, romantasy, Morina kutija, soylent green, zbirka Slavic Supernatural volume 2, Karin Slaughter i romani We Are All Guilty Here i The Secrets We Hide (The North Falls serijal), Stephen Graham Jones i trilogija Indian Lake, trilogija A Town Called River, Chuck Tingle “Fabulous Bodies”, mind control/kontrola uma, Jessica Jones, Kilgrave, Camilla Sten i roman “The Break-Up Reatreat”, Darcy Coates, Jennifer Thorne “Diavola”, Mariah Rae Birch i serijal “Sapphic Lady Knights”, Brigid Kemmerer “Warrior Princess Assassin”, J.
