Jane's fundraiser for My Sisters Place Help Jane Ford raise money to support My Sisters Place

On 22/6 I’m taking part in the Richmond Aquathlon to raise funds for My Sister’s Place—an amazing charity supporting people affected by domestic abuse. It’s not a long event but feels pretty epic to me 😅. If you can spare a few pennies I’d really appreciate it: justgiving.com/page/jane-fo...

Just finished Rachel Holmes’s biography of Eleanor Marx—equal parts outrage (on M’s behalf) and awe at her brilliance. It’s a book that will stay with me for a long time.

My book, Fiction on the Page in Nineteenth-Century Magazines, is out now with Oxford University Press!

academic.oup.com/book/58989

It’s a book about page fillers, product placement, and strange hybrid fiction. It asks how the page of the magazine became a spur for new, odd genres.

Looking through some old family documents and found my great, great grandmother’s apprenticeship contract from 1876. She worked in enamelling at Minton pottery and earned 2 shillings per week.

Labour set to ditch pledge for free university tuition, Starmer says Sir Keir Starmer said his party was "likely to move on" from its previous policy of scrapping fees.

At present, we are analyzing the manufactured funding crisis & austerity in the neoliberal British higher ed system. We will soon publish an open letter calling for robust & creative public alternatives to the current order.

Stay tuned! 🙌
