My job is editor of history books at Yale University Press. I'm also a human. Part of the Great #TwitterMigration. #Twitterstorians #Publishing #AcademicTwitter #BookPeople #UniversityPress #Academia #Histodons #fedi22

I find it fascinating to watch how cautious people are about switching social media platforms because they are used to one, they know people, maybe it's not THAT bad, they've invested so much time there, etc.

It makes me re-appreciate my parents' decision to emigrate as middle-aged people with two kids under 15, knowing they would have to switch professions and learn a new language--purely on the faith that "We'll figure it out!"

@ANeedham made me do it. No, he INSPIRED me. 😁
