Ongoing Projects
As of December 2020, here's what I'm working on!
Catching Chen Qing Ling (call for papers)
Co-editor Cathy Yue Wang and I are soliciting book chapters for an edited scholarly collection on the popular Chinese web drama Chen Qing Ling (The Untamed), its contexts, and its audiences. This will be a multi-disciplinary collection that considers the show's popularity, influences, and effects from a variety of cultural and critical viewpoints.
The Tolkien Fanfiction Survey (social media link) (survey link)
This survey, launched in August 2020 and running through spring 2021, collects data on the habits, beliefs, and preferences of Tolkien fans who participate in reading and/or writing fanfiction. This survey is being conducted to learn more about the practices of Tolkien fans who draw from his books or Peter Jackson’s movie to create fanworks such as fanfiction. Conducted with Dawn "Felagund" Walls-Thumma, independent scholar in Tolkien studies and fan studies.
