#PhDlife is a whole lot of editing these days. While I have a rough draft written for each of my discussion chapters, I'm not happy with the structure and flow of argument yet. Editing is much harder than writing! #outlanderscholar

Yesterday I presented a paper on Scottish reading history and how it is represented in #Outlander. Fantastic PGR symposium organised by the PGR interns of Centre for Scottish & Celtic Studies. Thanks for having me and for 2 days of amazing presentations from fellow PGRs. #outlanderscholar

Thoroughly enjoyed (and inspired by) our UHI Centre for History postgrad research gathering today in Dornoch, hosted by Jim MacPherson and featuring the research of @MrCameronHist, Dr Alex Dold, Melanie M McKay, Peter Noble, and many others. Great to bring our outstanding PGR community together.

World Outlander Day falls on June 1 each year with fans the world over paying tribute to the epic love story between Jamie (played by Sam Heughan ) & Claire Fraser (Caitriona Balfe ). This was the date Diana Gabaldon published her first novel way back in 1991 #WorldOutlanderDay

Happy World #Outlander Day! Celebrating the day by not working on my #PhD but spending time with family (and their new puppy) in the Highlands. #outlanderscholar #phdlife

I have been trying for months to get (affordable) tickets to see Taylor Swift in Edinburgh this weekend but it might be time to admit that it won't happen and go back to #phdlife instead of listening to all her albums.

Does anybody know any academic sources about tourism to Loch Ness? Preferably something that explores when it started and how it got more and more popular to visit #outlanderscholar #history #tourism

Been waiting for an important call which in the end didn't get through due to network issues. O2 stop telling me my connection is fine if it clearly isn't. Also, please offer an option to chat with a member of staff rather than calling which I obviously can't!!

Really enjoying the #PGconference on the topic of re-reading UofG Modern Languages & Cultures. It was a pleasure to present my paper on the foreshadowing strategies in Diana Gabaldon's Outlander novels yesterday. Continuing today with more interesting papers and meeting inspiring researchers.
