Yesterday got away from me a bit (ghosts etc, you know how it is) but CONGRATULATIONS to Tim Bentley 🇳🇿 - you won! I'm sorry I can't give everyone a copy 😞 but there are lots still out in the world! Support your local indies and hoard more books!

I've been struck down by some sort of lurgy and everything hurts from my teeth to my toenails. Send cat photos 🙏

Really pleased to announce that thanks to generous funding from the AHRC, Serious Games & Simulations and I will be taking our #disability #history game Legless in London to market! We’re currently working on the final proofs ahead of putting the game into production. Watch this space!

To know if one be bewitched or no … Tomorrow I’m lecturing in Oxford on ‘Witchcraft: A Modern History’. Spent this afternoon in the Bodleian, happily reading C17th manuscripts of spells and charms. Tip: if you can see your reflection in their eyes, they aren’t bewitched.

All right, yes, I'm back on this hellhole of a platform because the FOMO was real (more like AMO - actually missing out). I'm just here for the academic chats and CfPs - nothing has changed and Musk is still a knob.

🌟 CUNNING FOLK IS OUT IN PAPERBACK ON 28 MAY! 🌟 Look at its shiny new cover! And preorder it if you like magic, history and humans being delightfully weird (love you guys): penguin.co.uk/books/451800/c…

Now the ink's dried I'm delighted to say I've been appointed as the series editor (along with @drfrancisyoung) for the new Cambridge University Press Elements in Folklore! We'll be commissioning 'minigraphs' in all things folklore and YES, they'll be accessibly-priced! #folklorethursday

This looks great: royalhistsoc.org/calendar/lying…

First draft of an article done! VERY much Draft Zero - written only for me, absolutely no-one else can read it - but it's good to have the thoughts down on a page. Now to leave it alone for a week while the ideas percolate 🧠 💭 #amwriting #fens #witchhistory Seven County Witch Hunts

All set up to record not one, but TWO podcasts today! It took a while, Faust wouldn't shift. Really looking forward to chatting with Dr. Cory Hutcheson and Rox Madeira about cunning folk in history 😊

My beautiful book is out in paperback in TWO DAYS! Come join me to celebrate!

I've had great fun working on my talk for @somersetRLM today! Been rifling through my database for South West cunning folk, and spells useful for rural life. A particular favourite is the cure for 'a cow that cannot dung' 🐄 Tickets are still available! swheritage.org.uk/events/life-in…
