Name: somnolentblue
What You Do: graduate student, finishing dissertation with an August defense. After that I'm jumping into a new program so that I can work in manuscripts and archives.
Specialization: history
Research/Teaching Interests: 17th century English history, specifically gender and politics with a side of history of the book
Geographic Location: Northeastern US
Other Stuff You Do: volunteer at a local animal shelter, bake, and spend a lot of time watching tv of dubious quality
Anything Else You Feel Compelled To Add: my journal's pretty fannish (Supernatural, mostly, although I have a habit of writing random stuff about whatever media I'm consuming at the moment) with a splattering of links. However, Awesome Advisors recently set some deadlines for me (at my instigation), so there's more about that process as of late. (Amazingly when I'm not procrastinating I'm contemplating my work, and, by extension, my work becomes something I talk about.)

hi! I know it's not quite the same but I work on the history of textbooks in education. Friends?

Greetings! As long as you're okay with a rather random mixture of linkage, fannishness, and omg!dissertation.
