It's the final day of #AAWP2019! Here is a thread of my highlights (note: this will 101% reveal my genre studies/transformative works/pop culture/mythy bias)
Lauren Butterworth and Emma Maguire's panel on witches in historical fiction and pop culture, and how perceptions of The Witch have shifted with time and become emblematic of feminist threads of thought https://twitter.com/ausassocwriting/status/1198791108915945472?s=19
The "remix" session, especially @jessieflea 's look at translations and adaptations of early texts like Beowulf (and others) through a fan studies/transformative work lens #AAWP2019
Sophia Riley Kobacker's presentation on screenplay PhDs, feat. her feminine version of The Hero's Journey structure that governs a lot of screenwriting. Anyone who sets out to square up with Joseph Campbell is an aca-friend of mine #AAWP2019
Toni Fay Walsh, Linn Skoglund, and Chloe Cannell's explorations of writing through grief and trauma - a heavy topic handled articulately, about the different ways writing can help us express and work through these complex emotions
Natalie Krikowa and Chris Comerford's panel this morning in fanfic and its many merits - snapped a lot of the slides from this one because it was so much speaking my language 
Christine Piper on "creative flow": what is FLOW, exactly, and... should we trust a short course that says it can sell it to us for $99USD?? #AAWP2019
And not to toot my own horn or anything... but I had a lot of fun presenting this 
thanks to everyone who came along! #AAWP2019

As I've done before, I'm planning on recording this and putting it up on the tubes for anyone who's interested! (Though it will not include the dramatic thunderclap that shook the uni building partway through....)
