Was on fellow author Emrys Abner's podcast the other week, our episode is now live! Always such a joy to sit down with another practitioner and fellow podcaster. I hope you'll join in on the conversation! www.buzzsprout.com/1607737/epis...

I've been part of a lot of amazing discussions on podcasts. Some really stand out for me and this is one of them! Last summer I sat down with my friend @chriscogger.bsky.social to talk cunning folk, Welsh witchcraft, and folklore. Check this out! #folkwitchcraft #folklore #witchsky

Just submitted the revised manuscript to my publisher The History Press for a project I've been working on since last year. A guidebook to the witches, wizards, and cunningfolk of Wales and the Borders tentatively scheduled for September. One of the figures is Dick Spot the Conjuror of Oswestry!

I started a new YT channel: The Urban Tales. All about folklore and urban legends... would really help if you go give a sub, a like and a comment. The first episode is the ghost stories of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQF8...
