Today I finished the first draft of my new book. It’s hard to write anything, really, and especially so given the state of the world at the moment. So I’m proud of getting to this point. Cheers.

I was delighted to have a chance to be on what turned out to be Melvyn Bragg’s last series of In Our Time and also thrilled that an article in The Times today lists our episode (on George Herbert) as one of the best 15 ever! You can listen to it here: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

TEXTILE SHAKESPEARE has a COVER👀

(this is a late C16 embroidered coif - never in fact assembled - in the V&A. All the crazy scale with added big cats, like an acid trip As You Like It. I love that it is a bit stained and messy.)

The cover of a book. Text reads Textile Shakespeare. The lower part of the image is embroidery, black on white, with flowers, fruit, insects, and animals. it is discoloured with age.
