I have an article in the new special issue of @c21literature.bsky.social, 'The Century at 25'—working through some research that didn't make it into the book while processing Lucy Ellmann's _Ducks, Newburyport_ and Olga Tokarczuk's _Flights_
Hey Bluesky folks. If you’re in education or just follow for my thirst traps, would you please sign this if you can, and share far and wide? c.org/dCKk9vjqxY It’s much appreciated. My university is cancelling all UG humanities degrees. We need support and love right now x
Really happy to share this roundtable - thanks to all those who were involved and to @heyitsdenisew.bsky.social and @olihaslam.bsky.social for putting it together!

🗣️ Hanne Bolze's 'Charged Readings and Momentous Expectations: The Curious Case of Climate Change Fiction' is one of the six (and counting) articles in 'The Century at 25'—a brilliant assessment of the emergence CliFi as a genre.

I'm Lead Judge of the James Tait Black Prize for Fiction, awarded at University of Edinburgh since 1919 and due to be announced this month. But the university is currently withholding 100% of my pay for participating in a marking and assessment boycott. So, at present, there will be no prize.
