If you want to know more about my 6th century bard book, I've started a substack to share updates, research and cool facts about heroic poetry, early harps and Welsh myth silvanhistorian.substack.com

We are back for 2025 baby! Episodes monthly. Delighted that our first guest is a returning fav of ours Grady Hendrix who spoke to us very eloquently about women, pregnancy & witchcraft. UK folks, don't miss his upcoming tour. breakingtheglassslipper.com/2025/02/27/wom…

Meta stole EVERY BOOK I’ve written to feed their Llama AI program. I’m joining with The Society of Authors today to demand #Meta pays for the work it stole. I call on the UK Government Sonia Kumar MP for Dudley 🌹 UK Parliament to support authors and uphold copyright. Please share! #MetaBookThieves

Make your voice heard. Make it fAIr. Authors, if you haven't signed the petition yet, it's here: change.org/p/protect-auth… Today please join us in asking Meta to compensate authors for the work they have stolen. My books (over 15 years of work) are in the pirated database too.

Update! Includes harps, hill forts, early medieval inaugurations, a baby moan that publishing is hard, and a peek at Of Splendid Song aka gay 6th century bard book. open.substack.com/pub/silvanhist…

This time next week!
