  • Caren continuing to have storytelling workshops

  • Gregor reworking the backend for more flexibility - this will continue over next months

  • Feedback - Story Browse page - icons, book with heart on it

    • All the same icons on the left are a bit repetitive

    • One possibilty - the three spaces (inside heart, outside heart, ) - try adding some different colour

    • Could also use the icon to show what modes are in the story - audio or video eg

    • Could also add icons for modes e.g. audio or video - maybe under the main icon
