Hey Jocelyn, glad I found you on BlueSky. Yep, Leon and I have been communicating for a few years and he’s been very generous with me. I can’t wait to read his article and future book. Time for us to all meet at a conference somewhere! 😃

Advice needed, pls! I’ve been providing background info to a freelancer employed by a major film/TV company. This co. is planning to make a movie about a historical figure I’ve written a lot about. Is it reasonable to ask to be recognised/credited in some way? And if so, how and as what? Thanks!
