@zenahitz I thoroughly enjoyed your last book "Lost In Thought". It was a comfort during the lockdowns and I have recommended it to all colleagues and friends. Thank you! Looking forward to reading "Religious Life".
@jamesheathers I can imagine. Going from freelance writing and editing (where I demanded to be paid appropriately) back into academia I repeatedly asked: "so you keep my copyright, and you don't pay me, hmmmm..." and now "so I'm going to peer-review this for you, as a precarious scholar... :-)
I missed this when it came out, but I fully support the proposition of paid reviews. Editors are struggling. Contract, casual and unemployed academics are struggling. The 450 Movement by @jamesheathers https://t.co/8SVw864xgj

@MerrimanEileen@kangaroos991 Re: American Psycho I wasn't the biggest fan but read it in school so who knows what I'll think now - will be keen to hear your thoughts over coffee when you get there :-)
@MerrimanEileen@kangaroos991 So weird | serendipitous (simultaneously): just finished @ariel_gore thought provoking | life startling "We Were Witches" and she runs through The Scarlett Letter in detail. I now have to read it and can't believe I haven't come across either text (WWW or TSL) previously!
