Spent last night in the company of these absolute Queens SIX 👑! A thoroughly amazing spectacle. (And, of course, I had to get the pins that #represent my girls #KatherineofAragon and #AnneBoleyn 👑💜) #herstory

Really enjoy writing this little piece on early modern marginalia and what it reveals about reading interests! Always a pleasure working with History Today #bookhistory #marginalia #readinghistory

The joys of editing my first monograph 😬. Really wish my brain would stop deciding to restructure it, but on the plus side, I think this could be the one! 🤞🏼 St Andrews History Brill History #history #bookediting

Taught an interesting and conversation-filled tutorial today on Mary, Queen of Scots St Andrews History, so seems fitting that I post a picture of this wonderful Stirling Head medallion of her mother, Marie de Guise, regent of Scotland, taken Stirling Castle a couple of weeks ago

Safe to say I'm extremely Dumfungled... 🤯😴 #thankfullyitsfriday

I visited the Special Collections Reading Room University Library this morning. My first visit to this Reading Room and my first visit to an archive in over a year. It was GLORIOUS! #newresearch #LibraryTwitter #bookhistory

Congratulations to so many of my wonderful colleagues who work so hard on this incredible resource!! Arthur der Weduwen, Andrew Pettegree, Dr Elise Watson, @JE_Baxter, Barnaby Cullen, Zachary Brookman (he/him), Alexa (Ali) Zildjian, Maria Zukovs, Basil Bowdler, Hanna de Lange, and so many others!

The reviewer's report for my first monograph has come back, and it's... pretty good! I'm so pleased, and so relieved! #firstmonograph #bookhistory #libraries

A fantastic blog post from a fantastic scholar. Definitely worth a read 🤓📖

Last week, my Elizabethan England Special Subject students St Andrews History surprised me with a beautiful card and some lovely gifts to celebrate the end of our year together. I've loved teaching them and I can't wait to see what they achieve after they graduate 🥳 Thanks, girls!

Timed perfectly to coincide with the new trailer of Good Omens, have a read of my blog on apocalyptic literature in early modern parish libraries! #apocalypse #libraries #bookhistory #twitterstorians

Absolutely thrilled to see my first monograph published and out in the wild! #libraryhistory #historyofreading #firstbook
