Iβve been working in and with the English and Creative Writing dept in Aberystwyth for 8 years now and still feel blessed to be part of this absolute gem of a department.
Iβm even still looking forward to starting marking!

βI have given myself permission to think again, and in doing so, I notice, more and more, how much and how often this instinct is stifled. Education is powerful. It is valuable. It is worthy. We must guard it ferociously, for everyone.β

As part of my Faculty role, Iβm kind-of responsible for βcleanlyβ-hede of our module database.
Today I started drawing up a workflow document to guide departments through a wholesale review process.
Iβm once again realising how much I adore #academic #admin!

Quite!!! And hilarious (in a worrying way) that Griselda was seen as a model.

It is a surprise, every time Iβm reminded of Victoriansβ willingness to cut and twist texts to suit their prim-and-proper standards. #Chaucer

Thanks, Rob. It does feel like a good place. And quieter is sometimes nice. #medievalsky

View of a Welsh seaside town (Aberystwyth). Shrubbery in the foreground. Hills and sea and clouds in the background.
Also, Iβm based in #Aberystwyth on the lovely Welsh west coast. This is my favourite view of this little slice of heaven.

Soβ¦ Iβve been kind of lurking here for a few weeks. A bit like the shy newbie at a house party who doesnβt quite have the energy to speak up.
So, yes, this is me. Am new here. Teaching and researching #medieval things. Love a good admin challenge. Like πΈ and π and πΆπ»ββοΈ and β΅οΈ
