My editor, Dr. Lana Whited, posted that the final manuscript was sent off to the publisher today! I am very excited about this volume, for which I contributed a chapter on the psychology of humor in Harry Potter. It is also, to the best of my knowledge, the first academic volume to include essays on some of Rowling's other works, including The Ickabog, A Casual Vacancy and, of course, Cormoran Strike. I'll let everyone know when it's available to order.
Once upon a time, a fine fake-leather Sofa served a Denmark Street detectives' office, enthusiastically cheering on the PIs every time it was sat upon. Tragically, following some minor bomb damage, the Sofa was discarded by its owners. Happily, some cash-strapped Professors rescued it from the trash bin and, after a lot of TLC and adhesive vinyl, the Sofa was reborn. It now provides posterior respite for Faculty and Guests discussing their favorite books, film and television programs.
Spoiler warnings for The Running Grave
As of Nov. 1 2023, I have removed the blue text spoiler warning from The Running Grave. Readers should be forewarned that any Strike post could contain spoilers for the full series.

Thanks, Louise! I'm also looking forward to seeing the volume and think we're going to be very proud of it.
