Some medieval mothers struggled to gain custody of their children upon widowhood. My short story “In Her Keeping” is inspired by an Aberdonian custody case, now in print thanks to Causeway Magazine + mentorship by @vickymackenzie.bsky.social A story from my @sgsah.bsky.social internship.

Next month, I’ll be presenting at the @scotsarchives.bsky.social conference about the tarot card deck I created during my @sgsah.bsky.social internship last year. I’ve never given a talk on my creative process before and look forward to lots of interesting questions 🔮

I so look forward to presenting a paper entitled “Rethinking ‘Agency’ in Medieval Women’s History” with the WHS next month! Registration now open ☺️

During #SGSAHSummer25, George Thomson, @ebbastrutzenbladh.bsky.social & Rachael Edgar led an engaging workshop exploring the joy of improv & storytelling. This sketch video offers a playful glimpse into the energy, creativity & collaboration that made the session so memorable: youtu.be/XN7EgNXG5cs
