Love opening a notebook and finding a ratty piece of paper with all my best thoughts on it. Truly no clue I'd done this 🫠 thanks #adhd or whichever comorbidity was in charge that day.

Ever closer to figuring out my new research question 🤞

A year and a half in to my PhD (or a year and a half to go, depends how you look at it!) and my research has changed direction, prompted by a recent breakthrough. But thanks to involuntary time off & ADHD I'm struggling to remember what my revelation was.

Spent the other week in the Highlands at a wonderful songwriting retreat 🏞️

I wandered around the stunning estate, had inspiring conversations, & wrote some great songs about arguments, ASBO's & an East Lothian girl moving to the city 🌆

Excited to get my new songs finished & out in to the world 🎹

Made it to Cambridge for the British Forum for Ethnomusicology conference 🎵 this time last year I couldn't have imagined going so far from home on my own. The world is bloody massive, excited to be seeing more of it 🚇
