It's pretty depressing that a trans poet won the Artur C Clarke award this year - Harry Josephine Giles with Deep Wheel Orcadia - and it’s NOWHERE to be seen in all the bookshops. Seems like this is a perfect opp for trans visibility in a male-centric genre and we've blown it.

I never struggle with the two versions of myself more than in the gift shop of an art gallery.

An essay on the black oil in the #XFiles as a useful model for #materialagency - does the world actually need this? (I'm re-watching after about 15 years...)

As a sculptor, I'm fascinated by the adhesive capacity of weetabix. As a parent, I'm angered by the adhesive capacity of weetabix.

Good writing is demonstrating empathy and being kind to your reader. Thanks to the student who gave me this excellent metaphor. No doubt I'll be passing it on to others.

It's exactly the same with making an argument in essay writing. Don't trust the reader will follow you if you go walking off: tell them where you're going to go and why, remind them again when you're going off, and review where you've been when you get there.

In this thread, I'll be sharing an anecdote about signposting language. I'll then go on to explore how this might be applied more generally as a useful device in academic writing.

The only thing I don't enjoy about sneakily streaming TV series from my phone while the baby naps on me is the sudden reflection of my earnest little eyes staring back when the credits roll 😶

Please could someone commission me to make soft play versions of Hepworths/Moores/Brancusis etc. for a baby/toddler exhibition?

Doing my accounting for the year my daughter was born: implicit in between the repeated studio rent and campus car park outgoings is the lack of making time being an artist and the teaching sessions away from my 2 month old baby. What a year. #matrescence
