Very grateful to have had the chance to speak at Cambridge University for the Fairy Tale Trouble and the Art of Fluidity conference. It was wonderful to finally meet scholars whose work I've admired for years 💜

I've been lucky enough to be in Dr Kate Byrne's English classes at Ulster University. She is AMAZING. You do not want to miss this 👇
