My latest piece, on open access and scholarly publishing - revealing my inner fangirl to the world in the process (you are not shocked, I know) 📚 #AcademicSky

This summer I drove home to pick up the remains of my teenage zine collection. These included the masters of my own fanzines and forays into self-publishing. Writing zines was the first time I created fanworks, and the first time I wrote for an audience larger than myself.
