@Sandra_NiD @GermanUrchin Unfortunately I had some technical issues and couldn’t record!

[Trans/Queer Gender and Narrative Form @fqtnarratives]

Another great session of #TQGNF yesterday. This time, we really got into the question of what narratology can (and can’t) do with trans/queer narratives. Great talks by @GermanUrchin, Elsa Adan and Joonas Sännti and lovely keynote by Sue Lanser followed by a thought-provoking Q&A

[Trans/Queer Gender and Narrative Form @fqtnarratives]

...ending with a beautiful keynote by @Anasemia about chronotopes, transness and science fiction. Can’t wait to continue the conversation next week!

[Trans/Queer Gender and Narrative Form @fqtnarratives]

Yesterday we got to hear some fantastic talks about queer temporalities, trans bodies, non-binary identities, narrators and gazes, and gender queering in contemporary novels, second-wave feminism, Ancient Rome and 18th century Methodism...

Our first session of #TQGNF21 is tomorrow! The scheduled talks have been swapped around a little in the inevitable pre-conference last-minute way - tomorrow we have @chrismologos @spacedolphin__ , Nemo Gorecki and Carolina Sanchez-Palencia speaking, with a keynote by @Anasemia 🤩

@christydena The plan is to record the keynotes, and speakers who record their own presentation will also be encouraged to share it 😊

Can't wait to hear what these fantastic speakers have to say about gender and form 💚

@DawnGillighan Hi! Not for this event, unfortunately I’ve already had to reduce from the the number of papers originally accepted! I hope to do another iteration in the future though :) And registration will be free and open to everyone

The ‘FQT Narrative’ Conference has officially morphed into the virtual ‘Trans/Queer Gender and Narrative Form’ Symposium (15th, 22nd and 29th April 2021) - programme and registration link coming next week!

[Trans/Queer Gender and Narrative Form @fqtnarratives]

Sadly, we've had to cancel the conference with a view of rescheduling it for April 2021. Hopefully this will mean that, in addition to the original speakers, many more will be able to participate. Stay safe everyone!

[Trans/Queer Gender and Narrative Form @fqtnarratives]

The conference programme is now available 😎

Overwhelmed by the quantity and quality of abstracts and panel proposals received...it's shaping up to be an excellent conference. If you haven't had the chance to submit but would still like to I'll be accepting submissions until the 11th! - https://t.co/m38bdXJqq5
