Calling All Artists!
Tumblr media
In celebration of January 1st, 2024, and Public Domain Day, Duck Prints Press is thrilled to announce that we are doing open recruitment for artists to contribute to our next fanfiction and fanart anthology A Truth Universally Acknowledged: Queer Fanworks Inspired by Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice”!
Are you an Austenite? Do you love Regency romance but lament how, well, straight most of it is? Do you wish Mary Bennett found a partner? Are you positive Charlotte Lucas deserved better? Do you pity Miss de Bourgh? Do you dream of Darcy and Bingley OT3s? Well you are NOT ALONE! We at Duck Prints Press are right there with you, and we’re here to say: this is your moment to shine! We want your wlw pairings, your new happy endings, your P&P ot3s and ot4s, your “but what if they’re trans,” your queer art and fanart inspired by this beloved story! This story has such a lovely main and supporting cast, the possibilities for taking Pride and Prejudice and MAKING IT QUEER are endless!
This is the third in our Queer Fanworks Inspired By… series, publishing legal fanfic and fanart inspired by popular works in the public domain. It builds on the success of our first two, And Seek (Not) to Alter Me (inspired by Much Ado About Nothing) and Aim For The Heart (inspired by The Three Musketeers). This is a paid arting opportunity; artists will be asked to complete one full-page (A4/210 mm x 297 mm), full-color piece, and we may have space for some artists to complete more than one page and/or short comics. Base pay is $50 per page, with the potential for raises up to $400 per page depending on our success during the eventual crowdfunding campaign.

Does anyone else wonder about Mr. Darcy & Mr. Bingley discussing how much they like Elizabeth and Jane... Like I can only imagine what their conversations would be like... probably along the lines of ;
Bingley: omygosh, Darcy! Jane told me she likes swans!
Darcy: You know what Elizabeth says she likes?
Bingley: What?
Darcy: Seeing my face in mud... She's so amazing.
Bingley: ...

Predicting the composition of a steel alloy
Producing energy on Earth through nuclear fusion, the type of reaction that powers the sun, has proven to be a major challenge. The extreme conditions needed for such a reaction require the walls of a nuclear fusion device to be made of a material with a particular set of mechanical properties, including being able to withstand incredibly high temperatures and be shock- and corrosion-resistant. Austenitic steel, a non-magnetic steel with a crystalline structure, is one of the materials considered for use in nuclear fusion devices.
In a new paper in The European Physical Journal D, Ivan Traparić and Milivoje Ivković from the Institute of Physics in Belgrade, Serbia, explore an effective way to predict the composition of austenitic steel.
They found that laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy—a technique to determine the quantity of elements in a material—used in combination with a deep neural network—a machine learning technique—was most effective. This technique could be used to determine the elemental composition of a steel sample by those without access to certified steel samples.

I'm due for a re-watch of my favorite version of Pride and Prejudice.

The previous reader of this copy of Pride and Prejudice knows exactly what’s up. Many modern readers still respond to the social snark and optimistic romance in Austen’s novels. I like Pride and Prejudice the best because my sister is perfect and always sees the best in people, also my husband hates parties. Relatable. Do you have a favorite Jane Austen novel? #bookblogger #bookblogging #janeausten #prideandprejudice #austenite #bookstagram #bookcommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CmcvB6EvDgz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Also if you haven't watched Persuasion (2022), DON'T! Because it seriously is not worth your time and I truly do not think the writers should be encouraged to try and adapt more works of Austen. Like there are better adaptations of the book out there. If it weren't for the names of the characters I would of mistaken this for an entirely different story.

What's your favorite scene from Good Omens and why is it this particular scene?
A humorous reference.
