Poet, writer, researcher (she, they)
Mostly stuff about writing
Suomeksi ja englanniksi
We were happy to perform as Karkia Walo at Archipelacon 2 in Mariehamn, Åland. We also talked about this project as artistic research and speculation at the Archipelacon academic track. Thank you all organizers and audience! (video by @msfehrwight)

Hot tips from Post-Apocalyptic Life Skills panel ((fittingly?) the last panel I had a chance to see):
- You basically cannot kill Jerusalem artichokes (but they are not suitable for diabetics).
- There are collapsible looms, if you need to get migratory!
- In a pinch, you can put coconut water in an IV drip.
- No one is going to survive alone, so social skills are the most important postapocalyptic skills!
- And most importantly: you still have time to pick up knitting before the climate collapse!
Kova kolaus egolle, en voittanut nobelistia Tähtifantasia-finaalissa! (Olga Tokarzcukin Anna In olisi luultavasti saanut palkinnon minultakin.)
Mutta kuulin paljon erittäin mukavia sanoja Miasmalasta! Kannatti kirjoittaa. #archipelacon2
Työttömien määrä kasvoi toukokuussa
Today, I signed the papers that make me Professor of English Literatures at the University of Helsinki, effective of 1st August.
Am so very happy, a little stunned, and very very excited to be taking on this new role in my alma mater! 🥳📚🤓🫡
