A brilliant, energising day hearing about all things Modernist @ #NWiMS & presenting my musings on liminality, landscapes & the flâneuse. I even - largely - managed to avoid my usual obsession with Mary Borden🤪 Thanks so much to the organisers & to all the other presenters. Here's to the next one 😊

lovely day at #NWiMS yesterday chatting Lessing, Woolf and archives, spent today rushing to finish my #MLA paper, and now am very very very happy to be scheduling my out of office
The title slide for a presentation, titled ‘Losing Your Nerve’: The Tormented Self and Hysterical Sound in Patrick Hamilton’s Radio Dramas, with a black and white photograph of tangled threads.
the best day talking about nerves, hysteria & the radio; listening to amazing papers; & meeting glorious people at #NWiMS, thanks to @matthewtaunton.bsky.social & the @modernistudies.bsky.social team

Very much enjoyed #NWiMS yesterday! Met lots of lovely people and was treated to a great variety of papers. Huge thanks to @matthewtaunton.bsky.social and @modernistudies.bsky.social for organising

Met so many lovely people at #NWiMS & presented "The Late Metaphysics of Mina Loy: 'Tuning in on the Atom Bomb'". A wholesome note to end my time as a Postgraduate Representative for @modernistudies.bsky.social on!
Unfortunately not in Norwich to enjoy to lovely Christmassy-modernist atmosphere of #NWiMS but I'll still have the chance to deliver my whimsical paper on shaving in a bit 🪒
New Work in Modernist Studies #NWiMS today @uniofeastanglia.bsky.social with @modernistudies.bsky.social. Very much looking forward to hearing all the papers and discussion!

A picture of a newspaper advert for Sanatogen, a brand of tonic wine, with the headline ‘Healthy Nerves’, a close-up picture of a nerve cell.
unreasonably pleased with myself for squeezing this into friday’s @modernistudies.bsky.social #NWiMS paper on nerves & hysteria in Patrick Hamilton - a 1932 ad for tonic wine, complete with an image of a nerve cell, promising to help the frayed and ‘below par’ to ‘feel completely themselves again
Today I’m working on my #NWiMS paper on Charlotte Mew, Lascelles Abercrombie, and felled trees, which feels rather apt in the wake of Storm Darragh #ModWrite
this #ModWrite I'm using my 2 hour commute to try and answer a question Doris Lessing once put to her husband: "Do you think Lenin would have liked Virginia Woolf?" Gottfried didn't give her the answer she wanted, but maybe my #NWiMS paper will...
Honourable mentions - Samuel Beckett's Dante & the Lobster and Mina Loy's Lobster Boy
Lots of great presentations at #NWiMS @modernistudies.bsky.social. Got FOMO & feeling quite poorly but it made me smile to see Mina Loy's Lobster Boy get an honourable mention in Cheryl McGregor's super fun literary & art historical exploration - 'Lobsters'.
INCREDIBLE day at #NWiMS!!! Privileged to listen to sooooooo many thought-provoking and brilliantly presented research topics!🤩 A massive shout-out to @greenbowlerhat.bsky.social and Daniel for organising this!🍻Already looking forward to the Leeds conference @modernistudies.bsky.social!
My flight got cancelled yesterday evening after spending all day in the airport & today I've woken up really ill. I really tried to make it to @modernistudies.bsky.social #NWiMS against the odds but it wasn't meant to be for me apparently.
PGRs & early-career researchers! Don't miss this fantastic opportunity to showcase your work and network with other modernist researchers! Look forward to connecting with some Lawrence folks at #NWiMS this year! Hurry, submit your 250-word abstract; the deadline is TOMORROW! 📅👇
