My day today: Baudrillard in the morning and "Watchmen" in the evening!
It's Valentine's Day... what are your most romantic reads?
Just signed a contract with Liverpool University Press for a book tentatively titled "Play in Utopian and Dystopian Fictions". I'm excited to work with them and to see the book come together. Much work ahead, but I have A LOT of ideas!
Want to study literature that will make you think? This week I'm teaching Camus' "The Plague" on our MA 20th and 21st Century Apocalyptic Fictions module and Le Guin's "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" on our year 3 Utopian and Dystopian Fictions module. Love them. Can't wait!
Excited to teach the first class on our new MA module this evening. The module is focused on 20th and 21st Century Apocalyptic Fiction and we're starting with origin points tonight, particularly H. G. Wells and "War of the Worlds"
Good luck to all those receiving results today! It's an exciting but also very stressful time. For anyone who doesn't get what they're hoping for, please don't fret. You won't be defined by A-Level results.

There's a lot of hard work that goes into supporting our students both during their degree and after. We've just had news that we're ranked in the top 10 in the country for graduate prospects. It's wonderful to know that so many of our grads are out there smashing it!
Open Day at University of Winchester tomorrow. We'll be there representing the bookish! Come and say hi! 👋
Know anyone who is still considering their options for September and might be interested in our MA English Literature course? It's evening teaching. If so, please tag them. We're still accepting applications and you can get all the info you need here: winchester.ac.uk/study/postgrad…
Want to hear your lecturers having a go at presenting? Here's the lineup of papers for tomorrow's Culture, Media, Text symposium on Borders and Identities tomorrow in the boardroom at Uni of Winchester. We have three presenters from Eng Lit, among others! Come join us.
Over the last two years, our Norton Literature Team surveyed over 2,000 current & former English students to ask what their English degree has meant to them. While you can go to seagull.wwnorton.com/NSEM to see the full report, here are some highlights #iwasanenglishmajor
This could be of interest to @UoWEngLit students on the Intertextuality module. I'm looking forward to talking about Angela Carter's *Wise Children* with you later today.

Beautiful day to applaud our graduates. It's always the highlight of the academic year catching up with them and finding out what they've been up to in the months since they left us. Good luck to everyone involved today.
We can’t wait for Graduation next week! What are your favourite graduation memories? Visit our website to find out more 👉 bit.ly/UoW-Graduation
Was great to welcome our new cohort of students today and I look forward to getting to know them in classes over the coming weeks! Good luck as you embark on this new adventure and make sure you don't travel alone.
A lovely thread from one of our graduates! If things haven't gone according to plan today it won't define what you do.
Join us this September with guaranteed accommodation still available. Apply now through Clearing 👉 winchester.ac.uk/clearing/
Good luck to everyone receiving their A-Level results today!

Attended my first ever #graduation as a staff member today for @UOW. (Repping for @UOWEngLit and @UOWMediaFilm.) Lovely to see so many happy graduates celebrating with friends and family. Very pleased for everyone. I also received several complements about my swishy robes ...
@UoWEngLit @DystopiaJunkie @RLuzmore I've heard a lot of people prefer Station Eleven to The Glass Hotel, so that's definitely on the list - I thought Glass Hotel was beautiful!
@UoWEngLit @DystopiaJunkie @RLuzmore Always looking for recommendations!! I've got the St John Mandels on my list having read The Glass Hotel this year and really enjoyed it. Adding the Ma and Butler now too. Thanks!
