Today’s update from the front: a footnote that is actually in Yassified Shakespeare (book MS gets turned in Monday!)

In doing final MS prep for Yassified Shakespeare, we've been leaning heavily on the assistance of my extraordinary RA. Today, he gave us one of the highest compliments we could receive:

Are you PUMPED to see how this footnote made its way into academic discourse!? Get ready!

Did I spend a chunk of yesterday making a murder board to visualize and prep my tenure case? ….maybe.

In other news: COVER REVEAL! The next book is on its way! I was so lucky to be able to edit this collection with the incomparable Valerie Clayman Pye. This was the only image I wanted for the cover, and we were ECSTATIC to be able to use it.

It is totally normal to spend a weekend converting your book into an epic bespoke leather-bound tome of awesomeness, right? @sunypress.bsky.social made me an amazing cover, but this one is also pretty cool.

Things I have said to my cat and maybe also to my students: “dude, do not put the sword in your mouth. Stop chewing on my sword.”

Felix would like to know if you’ve done your self care today.

Whenever I see the orangutan in charge and his chief unelected officer this is legitimately all I can think of.

Excited to be making my @irishclassical.bsky.social debut tonight!

Typo of the day: "Master Yoda, famously voiced by American puppeteer Frank, speaks in Shakespeare’s original with similarly confusing-sounding grammar."

Came home to find the new issue of Journal of Dramatic Theory and Criticism is out and, well, you can finally read the answer to the question "what do dinosaurs have to do with performance archives?"

And now for something completely different; this is Felix. He is… very orange.

The paperback of Theatres of Value drops TOMORROW. I used to go see Shakespeare in Central Park when I was living the NY actor life. It took a few decades for me to ask what it was doing there, a question I researched to write chapter 5!

I’m counting down until the paperback of Theatres of Value drops on 1/1 by posting a picture a day of where the book has been. We’re almost there! So to celebrate, let’s head to Arthur Avenue in the Bronx to grab a slice of New York’s finest!
