Just watched I Know What You Did Last Summer and feel myself slipping into a fisherman horror rabbit hole. The violent instruments of fishing, the uncanniness of humans being at sea, the gross plastic outfits 😰
This looks amazing!
My new book has a cover!!

1 week today until my viva! Any little bits of advice from people who have been there? 😅

On our blog you'll find posts on all sorts of gothic topics including Taylor Swift’s monstrous women and the uncanny double in Love Island. We also have plenty of rec lists covering gothic fiction, nonfiction, film, podcasts and video games!

Yes, this definitely seems like a great alternative (state of industry depending)!
Not what I was looking for but that is a great alternative answer!
Interesting! Research development is definitely something to consider
Getting an academic job following our PhDs is looking scarily slim right now in the UK. So, in the spirit of our rec lists, let's put together a resource list of non-uni based jobs where a Gothic, arts or humanities PhD is still desired!
Leave your suggestions below and share this post!

Cover of the book Bunny by Mona Awad. It is orange with a grey rabbit and various quotes of appreciatiation.
A recent addition to our fiction rec list, Bunny is a surreal and gruesome exploration of loneliness, creativity and femininity. It asks how can women do wrong when they are so cute?
