I really haven't been tweeting for #afsam23. Just a bit too tired to handle the multitasking. But I do want to note that it's been great. I love being around fellow folklorists and listen to smart people talk about their research.
1st up: Linda Lee on family & fairy tale in adaptations of The Witcher. Makes the nuanced point that adaptations are tricky bc we delight in variation on something familiar, but it's risky bc one can change too much in the process.

omg #afsam23 the Portland Book Festival is happening not far from our conference venue, 9th & Salmon or thereabouts. Lots of food trucks in addition to book-related happenings.
You know you wanna catch our panel on The Witcher today at 2:30 in Park! We're covering multiple texts & topics (fairy-tale connections, family, disability, gender etc)

Awesome disability panel at #afsam23 discussing many of the intersections btwn disability studies & folklore, as well as fields like philanthropy, activism, etc.
Last chance for a #happybirthdaygrayson selfie at the @AFSfolkbelief table at #afsam23! #goodkarma @AndreaKitta
โMan, I love folklore!โ Mario goes to his first @afsfolklorists AFS Annual Meeting and finds himself flanked by admirers @FlyingMontana and @lynneSmcneill #afsam23
Okay, thanks to this panel, I now have a fieldwork project idea about tellability & which kinds of people are seen as tellable-to (e.g. those of us in sex ed often are chosen to hear things we don't seek out). Time for another deep dive into narrative theory?! #afsam23
"The right to have a story and tell it is clearly connected to the right to have a life" - one presenter at the forum honoring Amy Shuman, on topics of tellability vs. untellability, etc. #afsam23
We've met @ucpress author Patricia A. Turner at our @afsfolklorists book exhibit, pictured below with her book, Trash Talk: Anti-Obama Lore and Race in the Twenty-First Century #afsam23 #AFS
Neurodiversity panel at #afsam23 - so cool! Presenters are doing a great job at making panel accessible, with fidget toys up front, QR codes for slides & speaker notes, & mention of "it's fine to get up, walk around, do what you need to do" etc.
Our @afsfolklorists book exhibit is open until 6 again today. Come to the Atrium Ballroom to check out discounted books & journals from 18 publishers including @McFarlandCoPub , @WSUPress , @PrincetonUPress, @isdistribution, and more! #afsam23

Heads-up, #afsam23 there's an amazing food truck court with dozens of options just a few blocks from conference venue, at 5th & Harvey Milk! Local beer too. Such a delightful experience!
The queer reading of "The Boy Who Did Not Know Fear" was by Angel Stevens. Follow-up question by Anne Duggan abt how male writers sometimes identified w female writers' work such as that by Madame d'Aulnoy. How is masculinity conditioned to reject femininity now vs then?

Oh yes - note for both #afsam23 & #FolkloreThursday peeps: in 9 days my folklore-centered account of sex education history comes out! Please check it out & spread the word! #AskAFolklorist https://t.co/B8Pyw0G9fr
First panel at #afsam23 is fairy tales, w a fascinating paper by Ann Schmiesing on literally spinning gold in fairy tales & some of their epic/legend predecessors that the Grimms would likely have known of + socioeconomic & gender implications. Goes way beyond Rumplestiltskin!
