I am absolutely heartbroken. He made so many movies that were a part of my adolescence. He was a talented, joyous artist, and so was his wife. Between his murder, Brown University, and Bondi Beach, the world feels like such a dark place today. 😓

Okay, who left the time machine unsupervised again?! Wait... hang on... I hear they're aiming at someone who claimed medieval people never bathed... we'll come back a little later ;) Via the Sundry Folk: www.instagram.com/p/DMxvV-EMdp... sundryfolk.wordpress.com www.facebook.com/profile.php?...

A dear friend had an unfortunate accident resulting in some broken bones. It made me think about the medieval plant "knitbone" that genuinely works (on bruises). Learn more about it here: youtube.com/shorts/XpRlY... #herbalmedicine #medievalfacts

As fall rolls in across the northern hemisphere, people's thoughts turn to books and brews (the tea kind and the ale kind) ☕️🍺

It was such a pleasure to watch the Mariners play against the Rockies last night while enjoying a local IPA. A perfect, early autumn #PNW evening out! Not to brag, but I live in the most beautiful state in the US 💙🌲⛰️☔ #seattle #pnwgirl

Status: sitting in bed in my bathrobe at 1 p.m., chugging coffee and researching the history of autopsies in the 19th c. while waiting for the deep conditioning mask in my hair to do its magic. Who says that authors with ADHD can't get anything done? #multitasking #ADHDauthor #authorsofbluesky

I had WAY TOO MUCH FUN recording this podcast with @jillianforsberg.bsky.social and @greenleejw.bsky.social a few weeks ago! The Princess Bride through the eyes of two historical fiction authors. And a medieval eel historian, because someone has to explain those shrieking eels!

I can't think of a better way to spend my book pub day than recording a podcast all about history and The Princess Bride with the incomparable @greenleejw.bsky.social and @jillianforsberg.bsky.social! I'll let you all know when this #HATM episode is out in the wild <3

I am so frustrated at how little time I have for non-research reading right now. I'm LOVING Charity Urbanski's book on Medieval monstrosity, but I also want to read a Christmas-themed historical Tudor romance with faeries and my brain and schedule don't have space for both :-( #authorproblems
