In an exchange with @SydReviewBooks, @KateRossmanith considers the writer’s impulse (or pressure) to insert themselves into the text. She argues that many of the problems stem from how we are primed to conceptualize human experience as “episodic.” buff.ly/3sVwmn8

My latest essay for Sydney Review of Books, this one for their series on 'commuting'. My piece is about the work of sentencing judges, decision-making, how they get from here to there - and about a whole lotta other stuff too. @SydReviewBooks sydneyreviewofbooks.com/essa…

“The New Yorker voice is on top of the material under discussion. It is a voice of intelligent curiosity. The voice is smart-sounding.” “It is effective for long-form journalism,” writes @KateRossmanith, “but it was not the book I was trying to write." buff.ly/39WLxCC

Thrilled to share the news that I have been awarded an ARC Future Fellowship! My project builds on the ground-breaking work of @BandesSusan, Jody Madeira, Nancy Berns and others, and looks at 'closure' in the justice system. #FT21 #FutureFellows2021

Hear a former writing student of Dr Kate Rossmanith quiz the author on her hybrid memoir, 'Small Wrongs', which investigates remorse in the courtrooms and our personal lives: bit.ly/2KcrWvS
