I have a new post up at Blogging Woolf. Again, I am writing about Mrs. Dalloway; this time, I am focused on looking at how Woolf reveals Clarissa’s day chronologically. I use an Anna Benjamin article to break down the day.

I will be teaching Mrs. Dalloway this semester, so expect a lot more from me over at Blogging Woolf as the semester goes on.

Now that we are caught up on conference notes (which will begin again next week after ThatCamp Philly), I thought I would announce some recent blogging I have done in other places. I have a post up on Blogging Woolf about plagiarism accusations against Woolf after the publication of Mrs. Dalloway. I also have a new post over at Prof Hacker on stocking a teaching tool box before beginning your first job.

Hopefully, I will have more for both blogs soon.

• A few weeks ago, I was offered, and accepted, another one year contract at Burlington County College. Here is a picture of my office door:

I have a picture of the inside from the week I moved in, but it has changed a lot since then, so I will have to take a new one soon.

I was asked to speak at Ocean County College during their women’s history month celebration. I spoke last week to about 30 people on the role of gender and class privilege in 1930s England, which was a period I was heavily invested in during graduate school. There are numerous references to Virginia Woolf, George Orwell, F.R. Leavis, Storm Jameson, and Mulk Raj Anand, amongst others.

I will have a podcast of my lecture up as soon as I figure out how to transfer it to mp3 from my phone.

I have a new post up over at Blogging Woolf. This time, I am writing about intermodernism, a term coined by Dr. Kristin Bluemel for literature and arts in Britain during the years between the World Wars. If readers are interested, I have plenty more to say about intermodernism.

In recent weeks, I have a new post up over at Blogging Woolf. This time I am writing about Mrs. Dalloway again, specifically the role of the epic hero in the novel compared to Arnold Bennett’s novel Anna of the Five Towns. This was revised from a paper I wrote in graduate school and a few dinner conversations with Toni Magyar back then.

I really enjoy writing for Blogging Woolf. I will be posting more over there soon about Intermodernism.
