One of these things is more important than the other, and its not the archival research

[Noreen Masud @NoreenMasud]

[Deborah Lam @deborahlamkh]

I asked my co-convenor, who doesn’t have Twitter, what I should tweet to advertise our @forarthistory panel and he said this:
Dear followers,
Hear our Call for Papers and tremble,
Jamie and Deborah

Deadline is in three (3) days! Noses to the grindstone! Buckle down! No pain no gain! Hammer away! – and other hardworking metaphors about working hard: we want to hear from you about artists that you work on and their blood, sweat and tears (or hand, head and heart)

What a delight to be back on #InOurTime. Hear @Tom_F_Wright discussing Louisa May Alcott’s Transcendentalist childhood, me on her Gothic writing, and the inimitable Bridget Bennett asking Melvyn Bragg which of the Little women he is? https://t.co/k2Sg2spGve

[Deborah Lam @deborahlamkh]

Deadline for abstract submissions is 1 November so you’d better get working (pun always intended).

Forget the November US el*ctions, securing A Flat Place’s victory is much more important than who’s the next president. Make @NoreenMasud book queen again

[Joan Passey @JoanPassey]

Do you, like everyone else with fine taste, love @NoreenMasud 's A Flat Place? Then vote for it and you won't find me lurking in your wardrobe and/or under your bed this spooky season!!! https://t.co/kqztxcWEhy

Tim is now taking commissions to potato smiley your book covers

[Tim Gao @timjgao]

The lovely people at @SW_Bristol who helped me print and laminate these: Oh! I know this book! It's really good! Errrr

Me (quickly): It doesn't normally look like this

[Deborah Lam @deborahlamkh]

@cathyhume I was just teaching my first years the extensive complex uses of the semicolon and I think I have outed myself as a punctuation fiend
