about this site

My name is Madeleine Morris. This is my project and research blog. Although I write fiction under the pen name of Remittance Girl, needs must that I do my academic research under my real name.

This space acts as a repository and workspace for my passions as an academic. I am in love with both the reading and writing processes. I am fascinated by how people read and how they write and the relationship between them.

I’m also deeply interested in how we, both as readers and writers, experience fictionality. What are our minds doing? How do we perform the feats of imagination we perform, both as readers and writers?

Posted here is my research rough work. This is where I ask questions, where I elicit answers and where I digest what I’ve learned – which inevitably leads to more questions.

    I came across you on fetlife today and was taken with your words but much more so with your rare depth of understanding. Maybe I will become a regular reader of your mind.

    I have been a reader of your work as remittance girl for a long time. I found so much comfort an healing from reading the stories you wrote. I dont understand where the website went, and I want to read your stories again in this time of trauma for healing. Please will you tell me if I could buy a book or find your stories somewhere?

    Enjoy your work. You had a story about a young girl who “inadvertently” turned herself into a paid service with a gentleman in a hotel room one night. I forgot the name of the story. What was the title and where can I find a copy of that piece? It was really good!
