It's the last day of this phenomenal flash sale! Get 50 percent off tons of great UNC Press titles, including my forthcoming book THE LIFE AND DEATH OF RYAN WHITE.

What is left of Twitter, I don't trust. So I'm not giving alllll the deets. But for anybody on #AcademicTwitter who is still here and cares... I got a tenure-track job! While ABD! It does still happen, apparently. Just in case you needed a lil hope.

Grad students: I just got a tenure track job while ABD and I took one day a week off every week of my program except for the weeks of my comprehensive exams. Don't skip rest unless you're prepared for the consequences come job market time. You need rest to be your best.

Just saw an advertisement for a "no-fear dissertation." As someone who just completed hers, I promise you that there is no such thing.

From what I've gathered, #AcademicTwitter is pretty well dead. But on the off-chance it isn't... anybody got tips for querying a trade press?
