“Everyone has a book in them” so the saying goes and many of you are already authors. But for some that book may still be in the mind rather than the page. This is the idea behind the IABC (International Association of Business Communicators) one hour online panel discussion facilitated by Freeman Susan Walker.

The Two Sides Trend Tracker is a biennial global survey and one of the most comprehensive studies into consumer perceptions of print, paper, and paper-based packaging. In its latest edition, the research gathered responses from 12,400 consumers across 17 countries, including South America, the United States, South Africa and Europe, offering valuable insights into global attitudes towards paper-based and digital communication.
Paper vs Digital Communications
Across Europe, a growing number of organisations are encouraging customers to transition from paper to digital communications, often citing environmental benefits. However, many of these claims lack evidence and fall under the definition of greenwashing - the use of misleading environmental messaging to justify cost-saving decisions.
The Trend Tracker survey reveals that 56% of European consumers recognise the primary motivation for service providers switching their customer communications to digital is to reduce costs, not to help the environment, an increase from 49% in 2021. Furthermore, 65% believe they should not be charged more for choosing paper bills or statements, a figure that has risen steadily from 54% in 2021.
The right to choose remains important for many. 76% of European consumers (up from 74% in 2021) agree they should have the right to choose between paper and electronic communications, especially when dealing with financial and service providers. This choice is not only about preference but about accessibility, ensuring that those who cannot easily access digital services are not left behind.

About this book
This book uses the roles of celebrities in society to frame discussions about digital culture in the platform era and helps us see how we have evolved online in our communication and cultural creations. Focusing on the modern types of Internet celebrities (influencers, opinion leaders, nanocelebrities, and platform superstars) allows us to discuss their online practices and how their work has significantly changed the ways we define our communities within increasingly fragmented digital audiences and platform users.

WORKS ON PAPER is an auction to raise funds for the next stage of business development for Rebel Stationery, a London-based ethical luxury stationery brand striving to support women in the global textile industries.
This collection of work has been created by a group of female and queer artists to celebrate and explore a variety of media, style, and of course, paper. Our artists have been selected for their visual excellence, exploring themes of femininity, cultural history and political diversity.
Each artist has presented work that is powerfully evocative and indicative of our company mission statement to recognise the intrinsic beauty of the feminine and the divine transcendence of creativity.
As well as to the artists who have submitted work, monies raised will also go towards ensuring Rebel can continue their mission by creating products that directly enable women around the world to sustain financial independence whilst safeguarding their unique crafts and heritage. https://rebelstationery.indy.auction/auctions/687f91f55da380e5104c0bfc
