I’m delighted to announce that registration is now open for the workshop “Autofiction and Illness Narratives”, an exciting coda to this project!

The workshop will take place online on Wednesday 9th June 2021 10am-12pm BST. We will be joined by Graham Matthews (Nanyang Technological University, Singapore), Olga Michael (University of Cyprus), and Abby Ashley (University of Bristol) to learn more about their work at the intersection of autofiction, illness narratives scholarship, graphic medicine, and critical disability studies. The presentations will be followed by a discussion on how theories of autofiction can help us make sense of fake illness narratives and life-writing, more in general.

Attendance is free, but please email maria.vaccarella@bristol.ac.uk to book your place.

  1. I am really interested in this workshop, but I am located in Chicago, and I need to accept that I cannot be on at 4am. I hope tho be able to attend future activities. Have a great workshop!
