What a pleasure it was talking with Tim Kail for the @sarahlawrencecollege podcast. He got me to confess to watching Love is Blind, which is the mark of a great interviewer.

The picture is from my essay :)
"Precarity, Caregiving, and Covid," edited by @Bloomily and @lahartvillalta, considers the "blurring" of the academic and personal, "examining what it means to perform academic labor and care work at the same time and in the same space."

Grateful to Naomi Michalowicz for reading my "spider-book" and reviewing it for Synapsis: medicalhealthhumanities.com/…
Writing an article on caregiving and academia. Are there any academics out there who are caregivers (parental care, elder care, partner care, etc...) who left academia or took a different career path due to caregiving demands and would be interested in talking? Feel free to DM.
I wrote a piece in Lit Hub about parenting memoirs and disability. lithub.com/what-pearl-s-buck…
What an extraordinary panel of scholars to join for my first ASAP conference. Thank you @samanthanpinto for wrangling us together.
