  1. Personal observation. I've written my fair share of articles, books & other stuff. As not so uncommon in the Humanities, especially if you're not one of the "big names," you don't get many citations, even on well-received publications. The one time I wrote a chapter about #VideoGames & the use of the #Paratext concept in #GameStudies, in a bit of an odd anthology, it turned out to be by far the most famous piece of academic text I have ever written! Published in 2015, it just keeps on giving 😂

  6. Today brings the latest edition of #TheXenopod on #AlienVsPredator: @simonxix & @JimGR on why the #film doesn't work, how its white supremacist premise fits into racialised readings of the films, and its weird contested position as a #paratext in the multi/#transmedia franchise.

  14. wow, i'd never heard of paratext!!!:

    "How can fiction contribute to the “truth” that the Uluru Statement asks us to tell? Allen and Unwin’s answer to that question is, in part, one of paratext. By composing a book’s paratext, a publisher addresses the reader about how to experience the book. The paratext of Paul Daley’s Jesustown includes 12 signed commendations on the first four pages and a four-page “Author Note” at the end of the story." theconversation.com/paul-daley
