Oates's first book, a collection of short stories called By the North Gate, was published in 1963, followed by her debut novel, With Shuddering Fall, in 1964. Four years later, she relocated to Canada to teach at the University of Windsor. It’s here that she established her signature pace, releasing two to three books a year.
Over her six-decade-plus career, Oates has collected nearly every major literary honor, from National Book Awards to the National Humanities Medal. One of the more unexpected titles she recently added to her trove? Queen of Literary Twitter.
“It’s fitting that Oates is donning the Bracket Crown, not only as a true master of the short post, but as someone whose dedication to being online validates the entire project of Literary Twitter, whatever it was,” the outlet wrote. “Maybe if someone so talented and so celebrated is also So Logged On, there’s hope for the rest of us too.”
