Yesterday should've been the pub date for my book in e-format, and tomorrow for paper, but it wasn't & won't be because the Cambridge site (systems?) was hacked & somehow compromised in late summer after everything was ready, but it's affected the production. Still eating book cake on the weekend! 🥲

#bookhistory exciting day, getting to see Hamilton College’s copy of Wheatley’s Poems. The Contents pages—at the end—always struck me as oddly placed. Why is it like this? Or is more common than I realized?

Collaborating with the Imagination Library was such a joy, not least for the opportunity to tell them about (my) Jolene 🐕‍🦺🎶. RIP Dolly

My little Fig! I got her when I was at Hamilton College (2007) and she's with my mom in Florida now (did not want to make the transatlantic move). That makes her 20-ish (?!). She's a mouser, when she gets a chance, and I'll get to see her in September 🩷 I'm so sorry for your loss.

Book news: Codex Poetics is now available to order: hardback, paperback, and e-book. With the pre-order discount (code CPPRR2026 at the checkout, expires 30 September), read it in the reasonably affordable paperback to find out (intellectually *and* experientially) why the bound book format matters!

I WILL get back to my seminar papers, but, 1st, 1 more quote from Pope Leo. For my deans and yours: "We must learn . . to protect our young people from the promise of the perfect machine, from that subtle temptation which renders human thought seemingly superfluous when it is most needed."

Ghent is such a lovely city of bicycles & beer, & also where (now Dr.) Dominic Bentley Hussey successfully defended his startlingly original dissertation on media studies, Romanticism, & pseudo-translation (British + French). 36 hrs there was not enough. In other news, my BU regalia made its debut 🎉

Sense of community is crucial to postgrad intellectual life, so the Directors of Durham's MA in English are cooking up ideas for 2026/27, from a Welcome Symposium👋 and autumn picnic🥪🧺 to a winter Bake-Off 🍰 and a movie/theatre night🎭🍿. (Yes, a baked goods competition *will* help the ideas flourish.)

In the depths of book production anguish, I did it. I bought myself a 1797 edition of Charlotte Smith’s Elegiac Sonnets ♥️🌸
Smith’s volume is open to the sonnet ‘To Spring’ with an accompanying image on the opposite page.
