My article on Virginia Woolf and extinction, for English: Journal of the English Association, is finally here, and open access! Delighted to have it out in the world at last https://t.co/t8RSih0t5n

📣 A call for help from fellow ECRs! 📣 Does anyone have any experience of applying for the Cambridge junior research fellowships? Would greatly appreciate any advice, as the application process seems wildly (though not unexpectedly) opaque #ECR #AcademicSupport #AcademicTwitter

Whew! We are back from Fresno State University where Woolfians from all over the world convened this past week for the 33rd Annual International Conference on Virginia Woolf hosted by J. Ashley Foster & her most excellent program committee & team student volunteers!

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

Such an amazing conference, thank you so much, Ashley and everyone else involved. Incredible and generative scholarship and artwork on display in every panel, plenary, and keynote. Bring on Sussex 2025! #VWoolf2024 #VirginiaWoolf

After last night's artist's talk with the incredible @JapAne, starting today with her luminary exhibition 'Kew Gardens: The Poetics of Technê' will be a mind-altering experience. #VWoolf2024 @Fresno_State

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

Such a great panel, thank you to Laura Ludke and Mine Ozyurt Kilic for your fantastic papers. And to Hanhan Zhang for chairing! Time to decompress in the craft workshop I think... #VWoolf2024

Catching sun at Yosemite. Sweaty and tired, but so excited for the first day of the Woolf Conference 2024 bright and early tomorrow! #VirginiaWoolf @Fresno_State

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

Delighted. Relieved. Exhausted. Huge thanks to @was925 and @spectres_of for supervising this project, it's been a wonderful journey. And thank you, Drs Christina Alt and @peteradkins17 for examining. @worcester_uni @EngLitUoW

[Dr Whitney Standlee @was925]

Congratulations to @AtomsAsTheyFall (Dr Ollie Case) for passing his viva yesterday with no corrections. My enduring gratitude and perpetual pleasure to have supervised him alongside the incomparable @spectres_of . Can't wait for the monograph! @worcester_uni @EngLitUoW

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

Finally submitted this! Feeling like there's a thesis-shaped hole in my brain. A huge thank you to my wonderful supervisors @was925 and @spectres_of. Excuse me while I stare at the wall for the rest of the day #VirginiaWoolf

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

Such a brilliant time at the @asleuki Biennial Conference 2023. Should've tweeted throughout, but with a programme so packed with fantastic panels & plenaries, & evenings so full of excellent company, there wasn't a spare moment. Thanks to all, and ofc to @LivUni. Spectacular.

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

Thoroughly enjoying an opportunity to spend the day with this transcribed holograph of To the Lighthouse. On re-reading the finished draft, Woolf joyously writes 'never a word wrong for a page at a time' @SenateHouseLib #VirginiaWoolf

Dystopian London: robotic voice on the tube telling passengers not to engage with "beggars and buskers" on the train. @TfL this is unacceptable in a cost of living crisis. #Eattherich

Excitedly waiting to join the conspirators for Woolf Salon no. 25: Party Time @woolfsalonproj1

@WeintraubCaylee Love this. I forgot to mention at the conference that my friend Niamh makes embroidery kits for subscription - you should check it out! @WimperisDesigns

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

Delighted that my abstract for @asleuki 2023 Biennial conference has been accepted! I'll be giving a paper on imagining the future through Virginia Woolf's Between the Acts and Vita Sackville-West's Grand Canyon. Time to start drafting my ideas... #ASLEUKI2023 #VWoolf

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

@peteradkins17 @WoolfEcologies United Airlines. Won't be doing that again if I can avoid it!

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

At last recovered from a terrible journey back to UK. Memories from @WoolfEcologies conference kept me going all the way. Enormous thanks to all involved. What a generative, welcoming, and inspiring event! The most important academic event of the year for us Woolfians. #VWoolf

[Dr Oliver Case @AtomsAsTheyFall]

Today's #ModWrite is thesis all the way down. Is the mirror in Flush similar to the mirrors in Between the Acts? How does one talk with animals?? Is this chapter really too long??? #VWoolf
