Our next #casebooks therapy is this Wednesday!

Some news!

I am writing a book about everyday bewitchment using, among other records, Napier's casebooks, which I spent four years transcribing.

I want to move away from sensationalist narratives.

I am super glad to have met Fabienne who is amazing.

I've had a can of Red Bull to celebrate.

📣Thrilled to be joining Bluesky conversations with my most recent publication on Scottish midwifery! Many thanks to @sshmedicine.bsky.social and @sgsah.bsky.social!!
