One of my favourite things about this episode is that Doris named three early career colleagues as the scholars who inspire her: Pablo Castello, Claudia Hirtenfelder (of @theanimalturn.bsky.social), and @nicodmueller.bsky.social.

Doris's book is one of three shortlisted for the @animalstudies.bsky.social Siobhan O'Sullivan book prize, along with my Food, Justice, and Animals and Yamini Narayanan's Mother Cow, Mother India. The winner will be announced later this month.

I got one recently from Springer telling me they couldn’t identify any other journals in their portfolio that might be interested in my paper. I wasn’t sure how to take that!
