  3. 🧟‍♂️🧜‍♀️ I'm very pleased to share that my chapter on the Zombie Mermaid has been published as part of the new edited volume "Deconstructing the Zombie: Cultural and Ideological Approaches".

    Warm thanks to the editors, Cristina and Alfonso, for guiding this ambitious project to fruition — and for inviting me to be a small part of it.

  11. Panic in Detroit (David Bowie), as I had to hand over my "I am autistic"-button at the airport security... for it was a " sharp object" . 🙁

    But... I made it to #kalamazoo! Cannot wait for the International Congress on Medieval Studies to start!

    Of course, I also brought one of my flutes with me, for some neomedieval entertainment. 😉
