It's publication day!
I'm so excited to share my concept of kaleidoscopic failure in the arts.
I argue that the arts present myriad points and types of regular, repeated, patterned failures that are concealed by focusing on artists' success.

Despite seemingly having “all the time in the world” during the pandemic, many artists told us that what they needed to be successful was time to be creative. We dig into this paradox in our new article, just published!

If you have a 2025 goal to get your research projects more organized or to reduce stress around your research, check out Shiri Noy’s new book!
Noy’s writing is practical and empathetic, and her systems for project management laid out in this book and straightforward & helpful.

As a Kentucky-born bourbon lover, I am a good target for this, and any time Pappy comes up, I have to also shout out my alma mater and mention that my advisor in college is the Van Winkle Professor of Sociology

#DYK Julian "Pappy" Van Winkle, of KY bourbon fame, was also a grad of #CentreC's C/O 1892. bit.ly/1QMcl3z

Trying to figure out how to split 4 nights in southern Spain before a conference. I know it is not enough, but any advice? The conference is in a hill town, so I have that part covered.
It will be in December--2 nights Seville, 2 nights Granada?

Weirdly it has only ever been in Montreal that people spontaneously ask about and correctly guess my last name's origin. Everywhere else they just ask "kin to Ricky?"

I just have to appreciate how perfect my July tech background from @TheEverygirl_ was this month.
In addition to going on a vacation in Maine this month,
I was working on my book chapter about #TomatoGate and Women in country music.
Chef's kiss, no notes, perfect image.

Today's transcription error:
"You’re looking for just those couple of people. I mean [Linda Ruth McCartney] was so lucky. They found each other and boom!"
Can you guess this one?

Today's country music interview transcriptionist error:
“It's kind of a Mary Connor thing.”
(It's kind of an Americana thing.)

If a form asks what date I earned my PhD, 100% of the time I will find it by opening Instagram, scrolling to the photo of me shaking my advisor's hand, and checking the date there.
This is the only way.

A new one for the stress dreams repertoire - last night I dreamed that I had to retake my comprehensive exams, but this time it was my colleagues administering the exams in the department where I currently teach 🙀
