I'm excited to participate in FSDW14 this year. Last year was fabulous.
I'm a "midcareer" academic working at a small liberal arts college in Philadelphia. My work is broadly interdisciplinary but always revolves around women's activism.
I'm interested in the ways computers structure/facilitate writing. I engage in a practice I describe as writing in public, in which I draft my schoalrly work in open google docs.
I'm not quite sure what #writinginpublic I'll be sharing, maybe my piece on reconfiguring feminist historiography using the theories of the French sociologiest Alain Touraine! I worked on this piece on and off from 2010-2012 and then set it aside when I began working on digital history projects. Damned if the man didn't publish another book this fall, so I need to revise to reflect that.

Welcome Michelle!
thanks
and I always like to remark I started writing in public post tenure when the stakes were a lot less high!
