Oh, there's something like #portfolioDay ! Okay, so, I'm an #author, #podcast host and data privacy expert with a strong focus on #ITsecurity awareness. I write #nonfiction, crime and #scifi in German and English. The last two years I mainly spent with making #books and podcasts for others, like the lovely Eltville #WeinSchreibereien anthology and podcast.

One of the things I published in the last two years is the utopian #novella "2042 – The Forbidden Library". It was funded by the Call for Stories of the CCC e.V. in Germany. Thus I could make it free for download on my website, but also print and ebook versions that are available everywhere. There's also an English version, even available at Waterstones. https://www.waterstones.com/book/2042-english-edition-softcover/klaudia-zotzmann-koch/9783903324725

Then there is my #dataprivacy longseller "Dann haben die halt meine Daten. Na und?!" which I'm updating about every one and a half years – at least in German. With lots and lots of practical how-tos for securing one's computer and phone, using encryption etc. And a hands-on approach on explaining, why all that matters. The updated English version, "Easy Ways to be More Private on the Internet", is overdue and I hope to finalise it this spring. #NaUndDasBuch #PrivacyBook

This year I'm doubling down on what I really want to write, like the #WomenInTechBook for which I already did 23 interviews with women in tech jobs in 2024 and which I had to pause for other people's projects – like basically all of my own books except 2042 and the data privacy book. I still want to make the #Kickstarter campaign for it to pay the editors, one for the English and one for the German version. I hope to also revive some of the other things in my drawer. #Feminism

Speaking of reviving ... I'd love to come back to #podcasting. Currently I'm one the hosts of the #WeinSchreibereien Podcast. But I would love to revive my own two shows, #ViennaWritersPodcast on everything around professional writing and #TheDinerPodcast on data #privacy, #ITSec, net politics etc. I already had some wonderful guests like Manuel 'HonkHase' Atug and Cory Doctorow. Love to keep going from there.

All work and no fun? Nope! I'm also having some fun side projects like #DesperateHousehackers, mostly together with @datacop and wonderful people like @meet_judith. Have a look e.g. at the Hashtag #G4M4k where we're building an M4 MacMini into the housing of an old G4 Mac 'desk lamp'. Current status: nearly finished, but the new USB connectors aren't yet working, so we have to re-check the wiring. Again. ;D Yes, there will be a write-up of the project on my blog once we're done.

For some more meditative time, I'm doing #Kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending things with gold. It all started when #SpotTheCat killed my grams' tea pot – the most nerve-wrecking 17-part-puzzle of my life. Last thing I repaired was the lid of a small tea cup. I mostly make videos, sometimes live streams of my #KintsugiAtHome repairs which are public on the #DesperateHousehackers channel on peertube.

@klaus Yes, that's the episode on #ChokepointCapitalism: https://www.dinerpodcast.net/cory-doctorow-on-chokepoint-capitalism-en/ Also, he and the team of Elevate Festival in Graz allowedme to publish his talk on the topic on my show to reach even more people and the writing bubble.
