foiled again by my willingness to teach night classes!!!

Adding this to the Keats week in my grad class!
If you don’t already, I recommend learning how to lounge on a sofa and type simultaneously.
The WPHP had an amazing project team ❤️ Michelle, Kandice @kandicedarcia.bsky.social, and Kate @kkatemoffatt.bsky.social let me work with them because I showed up one day, and I am a much stronger bibliographer and scholar for it.
I really enjoyed reading these really lovely and helpful reflections from Michelle Levy and Kandice Sherran on the Women's Print History Project and its work over the last decade. I always point students to it (and @grubstreetwomen.bsky.social's work) +

First up, in "Reflections of a Research Assistant:
The Multitudes of WPHP Work," Amanda Law discusses the several roles she took on as an RA for the project, and the special place Phillis Wheatley Peters and her book of poetry hold in her memories: womensprinthistoryproject.com/blog/post/146.
Clever "title page" design is all Kate!
