Fransina Stradling

The biggest academic thing I've done to date is out today... a guest-edited (with the amazing Carolina Fernandez-Quintanilla) special issue of the Journal of @LitSemantics on Stylistic Approaches to Narrative Empathy. Beyond excited! 🤩 Check it out 👇 degruyter.com/journal/key/jl…

@f_stradling and I have been busy browsing through a brilliant range of recently published work in stylistics. We’ve broken it down into bite-sized chunks here: academic.oup.com/ywes/advance-a… Added bonus – it’s open access! 🥳

Looking to immerse yourself in a book about immersing yourself in books? Look no further! ‘Immersion’ is here 👇 edinburghuniversitypress.com/book-immersion…

🎄 Time to dust off the old Christmas syntax tree...

Our free online course has now been live for a month! Huge thanks to @SandsUK, @tommys, @MiscarriageA & @Petalscharity for their support in developing this resource. We hope it makes a difference to those receiving or delivering care for pregnancy loss. 🙏 futurelearn.com/courses/effect…

@tamsinparnell She's communicating: You're doing a great job, mummy!

Motherhood is equal parts chaotic and glorious. My hair is unbrushed and we haven’t left the house today but when she looks up at me like this with her little gummy smile, it’s all worth it.

This week we have launched a free CPD accredited Futurelearn course for healthcare professionals! It explores how language can best be used to support and care for those who experience pregnancy loss. #BabyLossAwareness #FLPregnancyLoss @UCLEnglishUsage futurelearn.com/courses/effect…

Going to be a little busy the coming time trying to work out what this thing called parenting means, so anything academic is on hold for now 👋
