St. Martin's Press May 2015 ST. MARTIN'S PRESS MAY 2015 Beach Town Mary Kay Andrews A delightful new novel by the New York Times bestselling author of Save The Date. Greer Hennessy is a struggling movie location scout. Her last location shoot ended in disaster when a film crew destroyed property on an avocado grove. And Greer ended up with the blame. Now Greer has been given one more chance—a shot at finding the perfect undiscovered beach town for a big budget movie. She zeroes in on a sleepy Florida panhandle town. There’s one motel, a marina, a long stretch of pristine beach and an old fishing pier with a community casino—which will be perfect for the film’s climax—when the bad guys blow it up in an all­out assault on the FICTION / CONTEMPORARY townspeople.

  • Relational Labor and Audience Engagement in the Wwe
    Selected Papers of #AoIR2020: The 21st Annual Conference of the Association of Internet Researchers Virtual Event / 27-31 October 2020 IN THE RING AND ONLINE: RELATIONAL LABOR AND AUDIENCE ENGAGEMENT IN THE WWE Jessa Lingel University of Pennsylvania Introduction Professional wrestling has long been of interest to cultural and media theorists (Barthes, 2015; Canella, 2016; Olson, 2018). Long before reality TV, the performativity and scripted drama of professional wrestling allowed theorists to unpack questions of fictionality and narrative authenticity. In the context of internet studies, professional wrestling raises additional questions: How do performers use social media to maintain relationships with fans? How do gender norms manifest in on-stage versus online performances of professional identity? In this extended abstract, I present key concepts and guiding research questions for an investigation of fan culture and gender norms. I then provide a brief overview of related work and describe my mixed-methods approach. As this research project is ongoing, I present preliminary findings and implications as a concluding section. Key frameworks and concepts: Relational labor and kayfabe Following Baym’s (2018) work on how musicians maintain relationships with their fans, I use the concept of relational labor to describe the work that professional wrestlers do to connect with their audience through social media. Relational labor refers to the “ongoing, interactive, affective, material and cognitive work of communicating with people over time to create structures that can support continued work” (p. 19). I use the concept as a framework for analyzing the socio-technical labor conducted by WWE performers on Instagram. I am particularly interested in thinking about how gender shapes the work of relational labor: How do professional wrestlers manage relationships with fans online? What are the gendered constraints and affordances of a platform like Instagram for fan engagement? Suggested Citation (APA): Lingel, J.

Nicholson, Jack’s namesake and maybe even his father, a soft little dapper Irishman in glasses. He kept neatly combed what was left of his red hair and had long ago separated from Jack’s mother, their high school romance gone the way of any available drink.

  • 210 Interview with Adam Nevill Dawn Keetley
    210 Interview with Adam Nevill Dawn Keetley (Lehigh University) Adam Nevill, author of such folk horror fare as Banquet for the Damned (2004), The Ritual (2011), House of Small Shadows (2013), and The Reddening (2019), graciously agreed to an interview in August 2018. Below are his thoughts on writing horror—and folk horror specifically—as well as on The Ritual in the time of its writing (2008) and in the present moment. DK: What were your influences—whether film, literature, TV and did you see yourself writing in a particular genre—drawing from several genres? Extending or deviating from particular genres? AN: Always a tangle when attempting definition and classification, but I'm definitely writing horror fiction; a specific aesthetic aim is to transport the reader imaginatively through feelings of dread, horror, terror, wonder and awe, by use of the numinous, supernatural or supernormal. But my small contribution to a long and varied tradition of horror has been informed by books from many different fields. I've read widely and so much has inspired me, and made me want to write; fiction within and outside of horror. For example, the dominant forms of popular novel in my time have undoubtedly been the crime novel and the thriller—the major differences between them I'll leave to others—and as I have read a fair bit in these fields, they have certainly influenced my books in terms of story arrangement: Last Days (that is chiefly inspired by popular true crime and is a ‘what happened’ investigation and a ‘why dunnit’), No One Gets Out Alive (again specifically inspired by true crime investigations into the psychopaths who become 211 sadistic killers of women), Lost Girl (very much a near-future thriller about, amongst other things, a missing child and the story of a parent-turned-vigilante, engaged in a semi-official criminal investigation), and Under a Watchful Eye is also close to a thriller in terms of its plot— an ordinary life invaded by a mysterious ‘other’ that pursues its unscrupulous self-interest and revenge for past slights.
