Dr Andrew McInnes#Introductions: I’m a Romantic period specialist w interests in women’s writing, children’s literature, gothic fiction, also dabbling in humour studies and affect theory - still, I mostly tweet sorry toot cat pics
Re#Introduction with hashtags! I’m a #Romantodon pretending to be a #Victodon because I like all the #dinosaurs - I work on #Romantic writers like #Wollstonecraft, #Austen, and #Coleridge and also enjoy #Gothic fiction and #ChildrensLiterature - currently I’m working on taking #RomanticStudies from the #sublime to the #ridiculous, as a way of thinking about crises of #nature, #society, and #childhood as #collectives rather than individuals - I still mostly toot #CatPics #CatsOfMastodon
As part of the compulsion to reintroduce I’ve noticed on Mastodon, here are some of my extracurricular interests:
I love #ComicBooks and am currently reading #PaperGirls - a beautifully neon time travelling adventure with pterodactyls AND two-way horror story of meeting your younger / older self
I’m currently watching #ThePeripheral slowly on Amazon - its own horror story of multiple apocalypses - and possibly a ghost story in which we sympathise with the ghosts?
dhunterbell@drbeard79 have you read Steeple yet? It does for small town Cornwall what Giant Days did for university friendships.
@dhunterbell ooh no will look it up
