Reading Bestsellers - bit.ly/3qaw2iX
by @DrDFuller, @Dr_Rehberg_Sedo
I really enjoyed reading this book. I'm putting this on a syllabus for a course on global book market changes.
It's an honour to win two Eisners for Ducks. I hope the success of my book encourages more comics, more diverse perpectives, made and published from underrrepresented worlds of labour, or class, or those communities affected most by corporate and government power.
During Covid I ran a reading group for teens with @rjdashwood to explore how young people from across the country could connect through YA fiction - now you can read all about the project in this open-access article erudit.org/en/journals/memoi…
Love this @ArtsUnimelb display case of Genre Worlds, The Frankfurt Book Fair and Bestseller Business, The Frankfurt Kabuff, and some research objects linked to them! Sleaze-o-meters, letter press manifesto, embroidery and more
Julia, Bronwen and I are happy to announce the brand new Routledge Companion to Literary Media, ready for launch on 30th Aug. Big kudos to all our amazing contributors, many of whom are attending the #elo2023 conference at Coimbra this week @eliterature. routledge.com/The-Routledge-…
My new book, An Introducton to Fantasy, will be out in a couple of months (with @CambridgeUP) - I'll say a bit more about it closer to the time, but now it's done, I just wanted to share the finalised cover, with wonderful art by Brenna Lopes (@freshcantalopes).
