For me, everything is about the writing. I keep writing because I’m addicted to being human, and I feel most alive when I’m writing. Why would I ever trade that for something which bypasses the most transformative part of the process? I write to live. I don’t want a machine to do it for me.

It's been awhile since I posted on here, but popping back in to share that I finally finished reading Michael Peppard's "How Catholics Encounter the Bible," and as a Catholic who has done more scholarly biblical study than most, it was thought-provoking and a joy to read. 📚

Finally got a chance to listen to this, and have 2 comments: HARD RELATE about trying to explore Notre Dame with students on Assassin's Creed Unity while fighting off attackers in the apse, and I now I NEED to play Pentiment, which I downloaded over a year ago and haven't gotten around to

In honor of Kalamazoo coming up in a week, I put the ebook of my novel about the conference up on my ko-fi shop. It's $4 (cheaper than retail), but if you wait a week I'll put it on "pay what you wish" for the weekend of the conference. ko-fi.com/s/f77dc35cce #kalamazoo2026 #medieval #kzoo2026

I'm starting to save #medieval podcast episodes I find on here to listen to later when I have time to listen to podcasts, but when will that be? I've never been a podcast listener, and my commute is negligible.

I only just learned of the passing of Professor Dame Averil Cameron, my OG lady historian role model. Of course her research was influential (I just cited her again yesterday, before I knew.) But she was so generous on Academic Twitter back in the 2010s, and I fondly remember our interactions there.
