When I first started learning about the ancient Mesopotamian demoness, Lamashtu, about fifteen years ago, it never occurred to me how much I'd end up saying 'semen stealing'...

Also this was so much fun!
Today on #BetwixtTheSheets, I am getting snake like and serpentine with @readingartefacts.bsky.social to discuss the original demoness, Lilith.

I am really enjoying this from @readingartefacts.bsky.social - a more in-depth look at Christmas traditions than other books I've come across but also filled with humour. A perfectly cosy read.

I still can't quite believe this, but it's in the Bookseller so I suppose it must be true!

Huge thanks to my incredible agent Hayley Steed! And hooray for working with Granta!

Legitimately cannot believe that anyone thinks Woman's Lore is in a category with these five amazing books!

The evil demon in the latest Exorcist movie is Lamashtu! And this makes me happy not only because Lamashtu is one of the best demons going and never gets enough play in modern culture, but also because it rectifies a hideous unfairness in the original Exorcist.

I am so excited, honoured, and just all round delighted about this.

Had to email my publicist while I'm at Disneyland, just living in a child's fever dream of adulthood.

Slightly concerned that my discovery this morning that Kipferl bakery can deliver me slices of sachertorte within forty minutes has, by this afternoon, led me to the sort of decadence that normally heralds the collapse of civilisation.
