Just launched my @UNC_Press Fall 2025 season and all I can say is "Damn, my authors and their books are incredible." I can't wait to start revealing covers here, but for now I'll just share the theme I've given to the season: "Epic Histories of Empire." Stay tuned!

Not only did @johngmarks do all of this but he also taught me how to say "semiquincentennial." Delighted that @UNC_Press will be ready to offer such an exciting contribution for the 250th!
After a year of waking up at 5am pretty much every single day, I submitted my book manuscript to my publisher today! Look for it this time next year. I wrote 100k words in 12 months with a full-time job and two kids under 6, so I’m savoring this moment.

No better time to bone up on the Canal’s history when its future ownership is on the line.

HAPPY PUB DAY to @lori_flori: superstar teacher, historian, storyteller, @LatinxHistories co-editor, foodie, & friend. What better day than #TacoTuesday to get your copy from @UNC_Press to see the labor & lives that produce the Latinx food that we love.

Happy pub day to the amazing @Greeneland! There’s no better time (or price) to get your copy of this eminently readable book. Reach out to @SonyaBonczek, me, or anyone else at @UNC_Press if you’d like to review it, interview Julie, host her for a talk, etc.
