academic, annoying woman, animal lover.
This book rules. It is the smartest analysis of platformised self publishing, written by one of the coolest people in the discipline.

I don’t feel great about Helen Garner writing about another Australian woman who has been convicted of a crime.

feels weird to not mention that i wrote a book about gender and literary fiction that draws on an original data set detailing 50 years of prizes, reviews and festivals. i also should say that the book explores the fact that we’ve been having this debate every decade or so since the 1970s.

I understand that slogans have a purpose and are not inclusive of all ideas, but the call to "read books" as some sort of inherent defense against fascism nags at me. Which books! Reading is not in and of itself a virtue!
