Congrats to @renatakeller.bsky.social on winning the Friedrich Katz prize from the @historians.org! The first of what I expect to be many prizes for the Interconnections series at @uncpress.bsky.social. @juliairwin.bsky.social @cmcknichols.bsky.social @drjsarkar.bsky.social 🍾🎉

@shafrhistorians.bsky.social do yourselves favors and speak to these incredible series editors about INTERCONNECTIONS. Leaving it and them behind remains one of the hardest things about leaving UNCP and is one of my proudest legacies to the press and especially the field.

PSA ⬇️ If a review questionnaire from a press doesn’t have language in it that essentially says “you’re not allowed to use AI to review this manuscript,” tell the press that they need to update their document.

I’m not on here much anymore, but have to chime in with my warmest congrats to @gauthamrao.bsky.social on the publication of White Power. This was one of my last acquisitions at @uncpress.bsky.social but among those of which I’m most proud (despite the fact that he’s a Liverpool super fan). 👏🥂⚽️

Thx @publisherswkly.bsky.social for showing how it takes a village to publish an idea. 2 people remain unseen: @brndnpr.bsky.social, who had the initial conversations with John, & me, the editor who acquired & edited it. We’re no longer at @uncpress.bsky.social but our contributions remain.

@bloomsburyacad.bsky.social is open for business at the National Interpretation Association annual meeting in a Virginia Beach! We have swag and FREE books, so come by the exhibit before everything is gone! @naiinterpreters.bsky.social

A wild @newsobserver.com story about one of my @bloomsburyacad.bsky.social forthcoming books, THE ACCIDENTAL PICASSO THIEF. I love the Chapel Hill angle -- keeps me tied to my beloved @uncpress.bsky.social! www.newsobserver.com/news/local/a...

I knew the insides of @amyefarrell.bsky.social’s book were fantastic, but WOW the outside is a work of art. Since Lionel won’t let me near it I guess I’ll have to order another copy from @uncpress.bsky.social - and you should too!

Just 2 kids from the IU Bloomington graduate program in history playing grown-up at the @aaslh.org conference. John Dichtl at the AASLH helm and me hawking @bloomsburyacad.bsky.social books, which are available at a deep(er) discount until 4 pm today at the booth!

Hello, Cincinnati and #AASLH / @aaslh.org from @bloomsburyaced.bsky.social! We’re open for business tomorrow at 9 and look forward to meeting our authors and discovering new ones.

In a “when worlds collide” moment, got to finally meet @uncpress.bsky.social author and @aaslh.org’s @johngmarks.com!

Hello, Cincinnati! For all those who have missed the #debbie’sstunninghotelviews series, I’m very pleased to reveal that while I have a new job that could not be more different from the last several, the conference hotel views are the same. #aaslh2025 @aaslh.org @bloomsburyacad.bsky.social

Hi to all coming to Cincinnati this week for the @aaslh.org meeting! I'll be representing @bloomsburyacad.bsky.social w/ 2 wonderful colleagues, so please come by the booth to introduce yourself (esp. Charles Harmon's authors, now mine), pitch a book idea, & browse our stellar collection of books.

Let’s see how well my commuting muscle memory performs on day 1 of new job. First job in over 2 decades where I can’t hit the ground running and I’m terrified!

Warmest and well-deserved congratulations to @monijimenez.bsky.social's MAKING NEVER-NEVER LAND on winning the 2025 Gordon K. and Sybil Lewis book award from the Caribbean Studies Association! Congrats as well to the @latinxhistories.bsky.social series at @uncpress.bsky.social!

It’s a packed house for the roundtable discussion with series editors of “SHAFR Books”!!! #SHAFR2025

Remember: I don’t intend to send any books back to @uncpress.bsky.social after @shafrhistorians.bsky.social, so please visit the book and help me out! Exhibit closes at 2.

Anyone who says editors at different presses can’t be friends is full of it. @ceceliacancellaro.bsky.social @uncpress.bsky.social @universitypress.cambridge.org

I second this post. Looking forward to seeing many old and new friends at the @uncpress.bsky.social booth at @shafrhistorians.bsky.social next week!

Editors and anyone else who ever had to deal with sticky author situations, come to our session at @aupresses.bsky.social later today to share, support, and find solutions for issues that affect so many of us. @uncpress.bsky.social @ucpress.bsky.social @mcgillqueensup.bsky.social

I love it when series editors publish their own work in their series! Learn more about @uncpress.bsky.social's InterConnections series at the @shafrhistorians.bsky.social conference from eds @renatakeller.bsky.social, @cmcknichols.bsky.social, @juliairwin.bsky.social, @drjsarkar.bsky.social, & me.
