Thanks, Debra Rae!

Thank you!!!

If you answered yes to any of the above, please consider buying the book or asking your local library to get a copy!

3) You think it’s important to consider how society treats trans and non-binary folks who have kids

2) You care about women and non-binary writers, whether they’re taken seriously, and how pregnancy affects their status as “real” writers

1) You enjoy books like Maggie Nelson’s The Argonauts and AK Summers’s Pregnant Butch and want to learn about the history of queer pregnancy narratives

Friends, it’s pub day for Masculine Pregnancies! It’s about queer pregnancy, kinship, and artistic creation in American literature
written between the World Wars. Three reasons you might want to read it:

Two weeks until pub day! I’m excited (and a little nervous) to see MASCULINE PREGNANCIES out in the world.

Ok! Good to know!

Friends, a reminder that we are gathering a list of 2023 books and articles by contingent (NTT and independent) lit studies scholars to be published in @contingent-mag.bsky.social. Please reply or email at Rebecca dot Colesworthy at sunypress dot edu. We want to show off all YOU do!!

This is very kind advice. I hope to emulate you! I tend to be an over-doer but your words will help me remember that disconnecting is ok

Thanks, Erin! So, the idea is that you sign up for one class and one class only? And attend it with the same folks all week?
