On my way to Aston for a day of literary linguistic goodness. To the Stylisticsmobile- and away!
Excited to be delivering the keynote at the Aston Stylistics Research Group symposium on Friday. If any PALA folks are heading there (and are in town from Thursday), give me a shout — would be great to hang out!
