Thanks also to all at @HauntedLscapes – where I first began airing some of these ideas – and the gothic community at Birmingham for putting up with my works-in-progress study days!

Really pleased to see the entry on Maritime Literature that I co-authored with Laurence Publicover out with Oxford Bibliographies. It was a pleasure to write about so many great pieces of #bluehumanities scholarship!
