Anybody with any job leads in the North East of England? I'm North Tyneside based right now and actively looking. Very open to anything to do with literature, editing, events management, social media, marketing, academia or teaching opportunities.

Singing myself the alphabet as I finalise my bibliography is an entire new level of write-up hilarity...I think I'm losing it 😂😅

Moving into the new house has been a LOT more work than I thought, but my office is coming along, one more layer and my lovely bright orange wall will be done. I don't know why I chose orange, but this wall makes me so happy ☺️

Wow, the exhibition has flown by this year! So happy to see such wonderful work for my last year being involved in the project. I'll leave you with some highlights here - hopefully we will restage in the new year, so watch this space! #beinghuman2024

Fun fact about me... To combat the existential dread of approaching the end of my PhD, I often crochet pokemon plushies as a form of procrastination. The newest addition is this sweet little guy! I used the free pattern by Moreleigh Menagerie available here: www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

The best way to get to know me....my lovely bookcase! The amount of Atwood, Butler, Burdekin and Tiptree says it all really!

A picture of my bookcase. It is VERY full. Authors include Margaret Atwood, Octavia Butler, Katharine Burdekin, James Tiptree Jr and many many more!

New to Bluesky as of today! Seeming a lot nicer than the other place so far. Looking to build back my lovely big contact list of fellow academics. Research interests include representations of gender in utopia and SF and historically erased authors of both. Please pass on to any likeminded folks! 🥰📖
