If you think this is bad, you should have seen/heard me when I was trying to finish up my #plantationocene article on NK Jemisin's Broken Earth trilogy. I seriously thought I was going to die, haha. Somehow I rallied.
And while it hasn't had many citations (just a couple, the last I checked), I now have a PhD student doing a whole dissertation because she was influenced by that article. I'll take that win.
