@lowwintersun @RobertHamnett Usually, although when there's a really dry spell in summer then it does dry up. A neighbour has said they have an underground spring and they're slightly higher up. It overflows when we get a lot of rain. I haven't seen much local history about it, but I'd love to know more.

Someone in Glossop did a lovely job dressing our well. Apparently it used to be cared for by someone who is no longer with us, so I'm so pleased to see someone taking it on.

If it was you or someone you know,. let me know!

@GeorgeStBooks @RobertHamnett Really sorry to miss this, hopefully we'll make the next one!

@MancLibraries Since changing devices I've been unable to access my account and even after changing my password several times I get an error message. Is there an email address I can use to request more support? I can't find anything on the website. Thanks!

@dnduffy Now, now. Don't start coming at this with calm and considered thought. What the world needs is clearly more off the cuff outrage!

After almost 5 years (!) The Oxford Handbook of International Studies Pedagogy is out, including my chapter: Teaching International Studies through Folklore and Fairy Tales. Working with Heather Smith, Mark Boyer, & David Hornsby was a delight!

14. You don't have to offer an opinion on everything. It is ok to want time to reflect.
15. You don't have to think everyone's work is good/bad, you also don't have to tell everyone what you think of their work. Be kind. Be constructive (yes--I repeated it)!

I know I should ignore *that tweet*, but I also know conferences are intimidating to a lot of people, exhausting to some, and not always accessible. Things that worked for me:
