Why are conservative cultural critics always telling us that poetry is dying (when it's definitely not)? Here's what I think--check out my article, "Against Prose," just published in Genre and available for free at this link: https://t.co/2a8vCXczsC

Congrats to @dean_lit on the launch of this excellent episode! It's rich with resources for thinking about and teaching trans studies in nineteenth-century American lit. Give it a listen!

No better way to get ready for a new academic year than to give this a listen. It was a privilege to support @prince_yikes and @maxchappy -- and shout out to my grad union @GTFF_3544, thoughtfully critiqued here. The work is never over, so it can't be done alone

[Lizzy LeRud @LizzyLerud]

Can't wait for this!

We in fact NEED people who have spent years thinking deeply about the interactions between technology, race, and poetry to write poems using LLMs, and there are few people I trust more to do this work than Lillian-Yvonne Bertram. Congrats to LBY and all the finalists!

Shout out to two excellent anonymous readers and Genre's eagle-eyed editing team for making this article even stronger!

@blackstudies @c_thorsson Not so morbid when it turns out that what's "dying" is actually an exclusionary, unnecessarily limited version of the thing. Thanks for reading, @blackstudies and @c_thorsson !

[Lizzy LeRud @LizzyLerud]

@KatieSchaag Only briefly in this one. But there will be more in the book!
