I’m officially a TikTok girlie these days, but thinking I should try get into Bluesky… so, in the words of Taylor Swift, this is me trying: had a great day exploring west London yesterday with a trip to the Design Museum to see the Tim Burton exhibition 🤩 such a nice way to end study week!

Fab talk by John Tolan last night at QMUL. So interesting to hear about the Qur’an in European culture in the medieval and early modern period. Lots of wonderful publications related to the project already out and forthcoming!

Bonus: feeling super energised to crack on with some research things!

I posted a jokey Instagram, and appear to have forgotten to do the more serious academic post:

Super happy to have received my copy of this fab new collection of essays on crusading and historical writing. Thanks to @andrewdbuck.bsky.social et al for your support and for inviting me to contribute
