It& #39;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& #39;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">https://twitter.com/ausassocw...

The "remix" session, especially @jessieflea & #39;s look at translations and adaptations of early texts like Beowulf (and others) through a fan studies/transformative work lens #AAWP2019

Sophia Riley Kobacker& #39;s presentation on screenplay PhDs, feat. her feminine version of The Hero& #39;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& #39;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& #39;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

As I& #39;ve done before, I& #39;m planning on recording this and putting it up on the tubes for anyone who& #39;s interested! (Though it will not include the dramatic thunderclap that shook the uni building partway through....)
