I loved the book and it's so nice to be able to revisit it to write the paper. Oh, I would have loved to be able to connect with you in person, but I can absolutely send you a copy. :)

I’m on that MLA panel — and really looking forward to citing your wonderful book on the day, Rebecca :)

It was such a privilege to edit such an outstanding group of essays, inc. by Rachel Potter, Claudio Cabello-Hutt and Emilia Phillips, Simon During, Ann Vickery, Mark Byron, Jung Ja Choi, Julian Murphet, Michelle Pinkard, Karin Sellberg, Andrew van der Vlies, Yi Zheng.

In ATL right now, asking who is gonna be held accountable for putting a pumpkin in my latte?

Sounds brilliant, J! 💪 Wish I was there to hear it.

Congrats, Stefan! 🎉
