I’m extremely excited to announce that I have once again been invited to speak at Harvard University for Prof. Keridwen Luis’ Gender and Fandom class. I’ll be speaking about Online Fandom and how it was at least in part responsible for laying foundations for the LGBTQ manga that is currently seeing such excellent sales figures.
There will be some extra room for folks to attend (although seating is limited), so if you are in or near Cambridge MA and are able to make a midday class, please do let me know!
I’ll be presenting How Online Fandom Made Queer Manga Possible at Emerson Hall, 305 on November 9, from 12-1.
If you can’t make it, no worries, I’ll be posting the text on the Yuricon Essays pages!
Thanks!
If I were still at Smith, I’d make the drive. Ever get out to the West coast? Portland, OR area?
No one has invited me to do a talk in Portland as of yet. I go where I’m paid to go. ^_^
Will do. Best of luck.
