What next?

So, after the advisory symposium, what’s next for LangVH?

As I mentioned in the last post, we are currently working on publishing our findings. On the basis of discussions with our advisors, we’ve decided to start with the following:

1. A paper for a voice-hearing expert audiences on metaphors for the relationships with and phenomenology of voices. We aim to showcase metaphor analysis as a useful tool and will reflect on the practical implications and possible applications of our findings.
2. A chapter providing an overview of our approach for an edited collection on linguistic approaches to healthcare. This will be aimed at a mixed linguistics & healthcare audience, and focus on patterns of interactional behaviour and transitivity.
3. We are also working on a proposal for a new project to explore the experience of psychosis via linguistic analysis and novel data collections methods.

We may be quiet for a little while, but watch this space.
