My beloved bestie Jimin has written a brilliant debut novel, and I'm so excited that the rest of the world will get to read it next year! 🎉🎉

Graduated from the University of Oxford with a DPhil (PhD) in English this weekend! ✨ I'm going to be doing bits & pieces of teaching at Oxford this autumn, but otherwise am actively looking for lectureships/postdocs/RA positions - please get in touch if you know of anything relevant!

3.5 years and 90,719 words later, I finally passed my DPhil English viva with no corrections last week! I'm immensely grateful to my lovely examiners Prof Alexandra Harris and Prof Matthew Bevis, my supervisor Prof Kate McLoughlin, and my friends who organised a celebratory dinner afterwards 💗

Why does Virginia Woolf describe her memories as 'little corks that mark a sunken net'? My research rabbit hole regarding C19th Cornish fishing nets led to an interesting discovery... At last, my paper from the 2022 Woolf conference is out (open access!): open.clemson.edu/vwoolfselect...
