I=E2=80=99m excited to announce the publication of a new book on digital hu=
manities
=E2=80=94 Failing Gloriously by Shawn Graham at Carleton University in Otta=
wa =E2=80=94
published in open access (through a CC-BY license) by the Digital Press at
the University of North Dakota (https://thedigitalpress.org/).

Here=E2=80=99s the description from the publisher:

The essays in this collection document Shawn Graham=E2=80=99s odyssey throu=
gh the
digital humanities and digital archaeology set against the changing
landscape of the 21st-century North American university. Stylish,
insightful, and heartfelt, Graham reflects on the role of failure over the
course of his career. This isn=E2=80=99t another Silicon Valley-type succes=
s story.
Instead, Graham, who is an Associate Professor of Digital Humanities at
Carleton University in Ottawa, reframes failure outside of a triumphant
narrative and uses his own struggles as a way to remind us, "Don't be an
asshole. Practice radical kindness. Help other people avoid the rocks."

It includes a foreword by Eric Kansa and an afterword by Neha Gupta.

As all of the Digital Press's books, this is available as a free download
(at

 or
for $9 on Amazon (
