Evan Robins is an award-winning writer, journalist, and Co-Editor-in-Chief of Volume 59 of Arthur. Having come to Arthur fresh off her first year of undergrad in the summer of 2021, Evan’s distinct voice and ferocious wit quickly established her as a writerly powerhouse.

She has been called “one of the best upcoming trans journalists” by those who respect her and “a walking thesaurus” by those who don't; as well as a number of obscenities and epithets besides, which bear not repeating here.

Evan’s work has been published in Maclean’s, Xtra, and Trent’s Journal of Undergraduate Studies. She co-edited the John H. McDonald (JHM) Award-winning Volume 58 of Arthur, has been shortlisted for multiple JHM Awards, and received a Certificate of Merit from World Press Freedom Canada for Student Achievement.

Aside from her Arthur exploits, Evan pursues graduate studies at Trent University (an elaborate excuse to read fanfiction), that she might yet earn the title of Master of Cultural Studies.

She resides in the topmost floor of an ancient limestone tower in downtown Peterborough, where she wiles away her days rewatching Season 25 of the long-running British science-fiction series Doctor Who, and drinking an altogether obscene amount of coffee.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Bowlcut: Top 10 Canadian Pride Parade Floats
Should you have had the pleasure or opportunity this summer of attending any pride parade marginally larger than that of our own beloved Peterborough, you’ll know that Toronto Pride, Fierté Montréal, and other such spectacles often attract the benevolence of any number of high-profile private and public sector sponsors.‍ However, no one has yet, to my knowledge, seen fit to ask: what is objectively the best corporate, government, or otherwise in-poor-taste pride float?
