Sorry for the long period of inactivity, but the last few weeks have been kinda tough! and now, to top it all off, I have lost my job (alongside 30 co-workers). Send cute pictures please xoxo

And now, to top it all off, I have finally caught covid 🙃

Does anyone have any advice for independent scholars with full-time day jobs, who wish to stay active and current in their academic field? On another note, I'm looking forward to seeing the article I wrote for @MedWarMag in print this month! #independentscholar #historian

So proud to have contributed to the inaugural issue of Medieval World: Culture & Conflict! I wrote a short piece about the dual natures of early medieval warriors in Britain. Go buy the magazine and check it out! #medievaltwitter

Hey everyone. I decided that balancing a full-time job with my academic pursuits wasn't hard enough, so I added a rescue pup to the chaos. Meet Ozi Dogsbourne, Prince of Barkness. Breed unknown, but we suspect he's a bretzel-goblin mix. Praise him.
