Kimberley is teaming up with some other scholars of the supernatural to pull together an edited collection about The Vampire Diaries.

The call for abstracts went live on UPenn and H-Net just in time for Halloween.

Timely

Contributions can cover television studies, intertextuality, the role of social media in the TVD fandom, gender, adolescence, mind control, the Gothic, and can also relate to the original novels, the spin-off novels, or either or the television spin-offs.

We’re looking for 400-500 word abstracts (or send us the complete paper, if you have something ready to go), as well as a brief author bio. We need both by the end of the month, so we can get this project rolling as quickly as possible – full drafts of the selected papers will be required by March 1, 2020.

 

So get writing, and get your submissions in via: thevampirediariescollection@gmail.com

 

This is going to be epic!

UPDATE: The deadline for submissions has been extended to December 15, 2019. There is still time to be involved in this project!
