Thanks to everyone at #PALA2024 for such an inspiring week - and special thanks to Elisabetta Zurru and Daniela Virdis for puting together a great #Ecostylistics SIG. I have a notebook full of references and ideas to keep me going until #PALA2025

Rob's concept is such a brilliant (and timely) one. It was a privilege to help put the application together. Fingers crossed!

Frieda Gormley: "if people feel we’re separate from nature, how can we really consider nature in our actions? This definition and worldview is just so much to do with the crisis that we’re in.” theguardian.com/science/articl… #Ecostylistics

Q for Ishiguro fans:— which contemporary writers would you see as being comparable to Ishiguro? (Particularly in terms of style?) I’m seeking some group think to help with my research project! Thanks in advance for any RTs or suggestions 😊

“literary fiction ghettoised science fiction... literary fiction, for a long time, put its allegiance entirely in this programme of saying ‘we are unique and unparalleled and absolutely outside of everything else’... [it] made other ways of telling stories seem second rate.” 👇

I’ve just discovered bureauoflinguisticalreality.com “The vision… is to provide new words to express what people are feeling and experiencing as our world changes as climate change accelerates.” My favourite so far: Ennuipocalypse

Next week Fri, 1 Nov, the Humanities at Wolves hosts an online seminar with Sara Whiteley & Tino Oudesluijs (Sheffield) on using computational methods to dig into the style of Kazuo Ishiguro. Very exciting to explore new ways of understanding the nature of literature. #CLSUK

Thank you to my MP Deirdre Costigan MP for taking the time to knock on doors this morning and for listening to my concerns about the climate emergency. Regardless of political affiliation it's reassuring to have an MP keen to engage with constituents about issues that matter to them

The world feels a whole lot more terrifying this morning - especially for any hope of climate action. Right now I feel sick. But I also know we have choices on how to respond - and will try even harder to light candles rather than curse the darkness 🕯️

Aaron isn't the only climate person on my timeline posting poetry today. This is why climate comms matters. But also why literature matters.
