- This post on the power of digital film over on the Emerging Writers Festival blog is pretty amazing and a really interesting take on both marketing work in a digital age and the power of storytelling from the original storyteller. Awesome stuff.

- And in other awesome, geeky news, Bill Gates' Q&A on Reddit was one of the best things I've read all week.

- Calivintage's recap for ModCloth of Lauren Moffatt's Fall 2013 is pretty amazing. Also, those clothes!

- The Millions has a great post on 10 Books to Read Now That Girls is back. I feel like these arise almost as frequently as the episodes do, but I can't really fault it when it throws a spotlight on some awesome lady writers. Plus, this list is particularly good (Sheila Heti! Jane Austen! Nora Ephron!)

- There's also a great interview with Melina Marchetta on writing female heroines over at the Wear the Old Coat blog. Marchetta is pretty iconic amongst Australian writers and has written some pretty great women characters. It's interesting to hear her take on that and the processes she uses in creating them.

- Prada unveils Great Gatsby costumes. Be still my beating heart, etc.

- 10 Literary Board Games for Book Nerds! I would give my right leg for the Pride & Prejudice one. Also The Shining one. Because what.

- New Star Wars film has a female protagonist? (!!!!!!!!!)

- And on an entirely different note, some photography. This wedding is a dreeeam. Really, really gorgeous. And Lauren Maccabee's photos bring some dark whimsy to a wonderful level.
