I am ecstatic and honored that Mary I in Writing has been awarded the Society for the Study of Early Modern Women and Gender Collaborative Project Award!!! @jessica_s_hower @SSEMWomenGender @Palgrave

I just got to see Disturbed play The Sickness on the 25th anniversary tour. I saw them play this same album on their inaugural tour at a small college gymnasium.

Lovely review in Early Modern Women. The issue also has my review of Darsie’s Children of the House of Cleves

Really looking forward to chairing this!
