Please email to Brian Croxall (brian.croxall@byu.edu) and Diane Jakacki (diane.jakacki@bucknell.edu).
Submission deadline: Sunday 15 March 2026

We invite editors of and contributors to edited collections to send us two tips (150 words + brief vita) for making the most of it and surviving the experience with your sanity intact.

To discuss these questions and many more, we are submitting a proposal for a roundtable discussion at MLA 2027 called “Edited Collections: Tips and Tricks to Successful Publishing.”

Call for Proposals: What does an edited volume look like in a post-print world? What does an edited volume “get” you (in a professional sense)? Do we even still need edited volumes?

REED is turning 50 next year! We want to hear from you about our impact in the classroom. Do you use REED collections (print or digital) as part of your teaching? If so, how?

It's been a remarkable experience -- wishing @adho-org.bsky.social all good things in the future ❤️

That was a good course!

One of my students just described herself as 'a digital humanist in training' in her final paper (she also just declared the DH minor, so maybe she's feeling particularly confident in her development). Anyway, yay!

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

Bear is also sad. Bear is also resilient.

More dahlia tubers arrived today. Planting as many flowers and vegetables as I can this year.

2/ On Tuesday, the people of Wisconsin delivered a complete rebuke to Elon Musk as he attempted to buy a State Supreme Court seat. Even in the reddest corners of Florida… Anti-Trump and anti-Musk energy shaved roughly 15 to 20 points off Republicans’ November margins.

Is it just me or has there been a dearth of reportage about the Hands Off protests on linear news media?

Snow drops, croci (yellow and purple), dwarf irises, and just-about-daffodils. Breathe.

The dwarf irises and daffodils look like they’d be happy to
Come up. Not sure how the crocuses are faring yet. But I’m hopeful.
