It’s here! My copy of Not Of This Wold: An Anthology of Weird Lincolnshire Writing has arrived. I’m absolutely thrilled to see my story in print.
My piece is a creative non-fiction tale about a cursed Lincolnshire train… eerie, atmospheric, and grounded in local legend. If you’re into the uncanny, the haunted, or the just plain strange, this anthology is for you.
Grab your copy and take a trip into the weird side of Lincolnshire: https://amzn.eu/d/1k8J6Wk

But dogs seemed less trivial.
It wasn’t helped by the fact that my grandparents had a large black dog that liked me, so would follow me around silently from room to room when I went to visit them, to be fair.
The number of times I’d see it out of the corner of my eye and be like, ThisisnotEastAnglia. ThisisnotEastAnglia.

Today, 40 years ago, the first episode of British TV series Robin of Sherwood aired on ITV. I loved it from the get go, and have remained a fan over the years since. I am currently enjoying a rewatch. Happy birthday! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_of_Sherwood #TV #BritishTV #RobinOfSherwood #RoS #80sTV #RobinHood #Folklore #BritishFolklore #ITV

Off-season coastal towns rule. In Sidmouth, Devon, someone’s turned these old phoneboxes into Cabinets of Curiosity. These two are stuffed with exhibits of local folk charms & witchcraft, & include a mummified cat found in the wall of one cottage, & spells sealed up in others. 💀 #folklore #witchcraft #devon #mummification #spells #witches #witch #halloween #folkhorror #folkhorrorrevival #magick #spells #britishfolklore #englishfolklore #magic #spells #mythology #sidmouth #publicart #PhoneBox

According to Geoffrey of Monmouth’s ‘The History of the Kings of Britain,’ Gwendolen was the daughter of Corineus, the mythical namesake of Cornwall, and became the first queen regnant of the ancient Britons after raising an army to defeat her ex-husband, King Locrinus, in battle at the River Stour. #FairyTaleTuesday
