Living precariously: Life after a Humanities PhD in the UK in 2024 Something of a summary of what 2024 was like for me, and what seems to be happening in the UK academy right now.

I've written up a long post about what it's like being a disabled academic post-PhD in the UK in 2024. Gig economy teaching, #autistic, surgery to prevent #cancer, other madness. #AcademicSky #Academia #ECRSky open.substack.com/pub/fiveempi... #disability

Update full of my own shame and embarrassment.

Submitted to journal via the big splash “submit here”.

Get paper sent back by admin for missing things. I check. The things seem to be there.

I resubmit via the big splash portal… 1/ 🧵 #AcademicSky #Academia #ECRSky

I DID IT!

I submitted a journal article. Been working on it all day to finish it.

That’s my second EVER submission.

And I just saw that my first EVER has finally been sent out for peer review after… nine months.
