@hdichter.bsky.social@hdichter.bsky.socialAll the best people were born on Oct 11!
@hdichter.bsky.socialI hate how gerrymandered PA is. As a federal only voter this is the only race I could vote in this year. We have never - ever in the history of the US - been represented by a D in congress.
@hdichter.bsky.socialI remember those Ithaca days! I made a deep dish apple pie that is baked in a springform cake pan. Yumyum!
@hdichter.bsky.socialMine arrived today! I find the biggest delay is Heathrow and the NYC airport

@hdichter.bsky.socialAhhhh. You can do it! And both audiences will appreciate it i’m sure. Read something recently that cited you too 😊
@hdichter.bsky.socialDo the themes work for different audiences/journals so that it doesn’t feel quite so much like cheating? Or - how long would one article be keeping them both in? As a journal editor, I’d welcome any Q’s from a potential submitting author to help them with these kinds of Q’s

@hdichter.bsky.socialThat reads exacrly like the statement that authors are required to write from the T&F example text
@hdichter.bsky.socialTaylor & Francis requires reviewers check a box saying they haven’t used AI but it’s at the end, in the submission. We’re in the process of revising our reviewer email & guidance so people see up front that is not allowed.

@conteurohistory.bsky.socialReposted by @hdichter.bsky.socialIn the Second World War, women were active and effective SOE agents. But are they mainly remembered today through their glamour and tragedy?
In our latest New Voices blog, Danielle Wirsansky offers a more nuanced picture, dissecting why the phrase 'lady spy' is so limiting. ⬇️
