I've had some lovely experiences perfecting my craft. One of the ones I'm most proud of is this video that was commissioned back in 2022.

The evening commute and the inevitable train delays were all made better by the dog on the train!

Really excited to be speaking again at my local Mother's Union branch next month. Hoping to bring the story of Margery Kempe to life!

I would very kindly request that nobody make more series of 80's and 90's cartoons! First Orko, and then Gambit.

Both times, for comfort, I had to watch the episode of Gilmore Girls where they invite the whole town to the Inn and everyone gets slay rides.

Had a wonderful short trip to London last week. Managed to see The Silk Roads at The British Museum, and Medieval Women: In Their Own Words. Both are quite wonderful, but my personal favourite was the recreation of the scents that both Margery and Julian encountered during their visions!

For now reason whatsoever, thinking about this 110 year old cartoon

The Witchcraft Act of 1541 is a fascinating read, and I can't believe it isn't more widely discussed when historians talk about Witchcraft. Briefly, the Act ensured that all Witchcraft prosecutions were dealt with by the crown, and the benifit of the clergy was removed.

Looking forward to getting back to working on my book. Had to take a pause while I sort out all that comes with bereavements and health, but finally feeling ready to move forward!
