I am rarely on the ol’ Twitter machine these days, but this feels as good a reason as any to briefly jump back on: I have a book coming out in May!

First sighting of my book in the wild at @ParagrapheBooks (where I used to buy course readings 15 years ago). A true full circle moment!

It’s really real! This book exists in the world! 🎉🎉
Great way to start the week: @EricaRayment 's excellent new @McGillQueensUP book arrived. Drawing from a feminist perspective and deep knowledge of the workings of Parliament, this is an excellent study of what it actually means on an everyday basis to have women in Parliament.
