I know I have neglected the blog of late but I have been preoccupied with my presentation for ISSS; like most works, they are never finished, only abandoned — or in the case of presentations, must be delivered at a specific time so the deadline is very real. That’s to say I think I am…

Voilà Brigitte
Thanks to Bertie’s recommendation I have started watching Voilà Brigitte, which comes in wee bite-sized episodes on the ‘tube. They’re perfect for taking breaks from the presentation I’m writing for ISSS later this month — or should I say wrestling into submission (I hope!). The eons that exist between the proposal and the presentation hold…
Occult Humanities Conference 2017
I headed down to the city on a day that started out dark but became rather lovely. I saw the lovely Katja and her kitties: she’s the hostess with the mostest. We had a lovely dinner at Veselka, too. I saw a couple of the Ai Weiwei installations too. There are always sights to see…
Southern Hospitality
Catching up with the last part of the Raleigh trip: it sure is good to visit Susan and Ron and get some kitty time. Even better when Byron and Star make the drive over from the west. I am grateful to you all.
Anne Billson Interview
Over at A Knife & A Quill, I get to interview the faboo Anne Billson. Drop by if you have any interest in films, horror, ghosts, vampires, cats or Belgian beer. Or if you just like to read interviews with smart, witty women. Don’t forget — we still need to record the history of women…

Prints & Punk Rock
Another zippy trip down to Connecticut to see my pals. Great to see Marko, Bilokur and of course the Queen of Everything, Stephanie Johnson. After all these year, I finally caught up with Peter Crowley, too! Can’t believe we’ve never actually been in the same place at the same time. Had a faboo time, Agent…
