Our next meeting is online (and by recording) on Sat 19 Sept. Helen Shay tells us about Gaskell’s relationship with her publishers (inc Dickens) and how asserting her views and rights indirectly contributed to a stronger place for today’s women writers. gaskellsociety.co.uk/event/a…

Unfortunately, due to unexpected difficulties earlier this year, we had to abandon our original project. However, we still want to honour Mary Shelley's The Last Man with 3-5 essays, to be published in December. Reach out via our website if you're interested in writing something.
Today is the 200th anniversary of the publication of Mary Shelley's The Last Man (considered one of the first works of dystopian fiction) and we're excited to announce that we will be publishing a collection of essays in the novel's honour later this year. gothickeatspress.com/news-an…

In Manchester, for what is possibly the final research trip of my PhD journey. First stop, @ThePortico Library to work with the 19thC issue books, then to @chethamslibrary to look at an advert for the Manchester Coffee Rooms
