Our essay, "From Survival to Self-Actualization: Disability Justice and Care Work in Reciprocal Mentorship," was so meaningful to write together, and I sincerely hope readers will feel empowered by our arguments and reflections!

I'm thrilled to share that my co-author, Dr. Sara Webb-Sunderhaus, and I were published in Rhetoric Review's Symposium on Intergenerational Graduate Mentorship!

Beautiful bb 🥺

My part of the presentation will focus on a trauma-informed research methodology that I developed, applied in community-engaged research, and taught in an undergraduate research methods class. If this sounds interesting to you, I would love to talk with you about it at the conference!

Rhetoric friends, who will I be seeing at the Feminisms and Rhetorics Conference next week? ❤
I'm looking forward to presenting on a panel with Sara Webb-Sunderhaus and Ashna Singh from Miami University! #thefeministarecoming #femrhet25

Yes! I forgot about this! Adding to list

I've seen clips, but I really need to watch the whole performance!

I am open to Shakespeare and not-Shakespeare! lol

Ooo ty!! I actually own the Tennant Hamlet!

Friends, what are some of your favorite filmed plays / movie adaptions of a play? I'm especially interested in recent productions.

Nooooooo

Not to brag, but I've become pretty good at grading papers with a computer balanced on one knee, due to Jester's insistence to always be purring in my lap.

Well, I would love it 😀

I love all my classes, but my heart is especially full teaching Research Methods this semester. These are my first undergraduate sections of 100% English and English Education majors. It's so great teaching folks so passionate about reading, writing, language, art, social justice, and teaching. 🥹

You would be proud--I used a puppy for one course this semester! I'm getting there haha

Just noticed my typo 😬

Thank you, Ada!! ☺️

Thank you!! This is exactly the kind of work I was looking for. :)

Writing studies folks, does anyone has composition, PTW, or TESOL scholarship they like that addresses late work / flexible due dates? I'm working on finding a balance between accountability, consistency, equity, and empathy.

Do the local stuff.

Do the organizing.

Do the community building.

Those are the most important things.

But also do not give up a single lever of power preemptively.

Do not surrender your power. ANY of it.

Worth noting for folks just getting here -- you can actually turn off the ability of non-logged-in accounts to see your stuff here. Under settings -> moderation, you'll find:

A small watercolor painting of a horrified looking cartoon dumpling.

My phone just auto corrected "trauma dumping" to "trauma dumpling," so I painted this in case anyone would like a visual of my mental state.

How's everyone else doing?

Rhetoric and Writing friends, if you were to attend a feminist webinar the week after the November presidential election--a space to process, reflect, connect, and plan--who from our field would you love to hear speak?
