I am only now recovering from the wild wonder that was the #Shax25 #RSA25 double conference. Wonderful to see so many friends and revisit the Malone Society Dance. Thanks to my fantastic SAA seminar group for a thought-provoking discussion on The Gender of Paratexts!

Coming soon! Proud to have contributed to this volume in a chapter with Susan Schreibman on our work in the Irish "Letters 1916-1923" project, in which we faced the challenge of uncovering #women's stories in a male-dominated historical corpus. #digitalhumanities #feministdh #History
