I kept seeing beautiful Black women with this hairstyle. Looked like art to me so I made some.

This is the best preserved medieval street in Europe.

Recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086, The Shambles in York, England has had shops trading on it for nearly a thousand years. It's older than the Crusades.

A nice reminder of our botanically themed gothic conference planned for 2027!

If you are a member of @jasnaorg, I highly recommend reading "Neither Sense nor Sensibility: A Buddhist Reading. "It's an interesting argument that claims Austen's novel, while embracing the individual, promotes that true love only develops through interconnectedness.

[The Austen Connection @AustenConnect]

Happy birthday to us! The Austen Connection launched 2 years ago as a way to amplify, learn from, and engage with the brilliant, diverse artists, readers, writers, and scholars talking about the stories of Jane Austen.
It is a joy to do. THANK YOU for sharing it with us.❣️💮

[The Folklore Podcast @folklorepod]

Do you work with folklore? Writer - collector - podcaster or something else.

Do you think you might want to be a part of The Folklore Network and help us to collect and preserve folklore materials for the future?

Please DM us or email us at [email protected] to chat

[The Folklore Podcast @folklorepod]

I'm trying to bring all of our projects together as closely as possible under the new banner of The Folklore Network. Our tag line:

"to collect and preserve folklore materials for future generations"

As part of this I have added a new landing page at https://t.co/OQcq1e78dz

[The Folklore Podcast @folklorepod]

Just a couple of days until the next Folklore Podcast Lecture, where I will be examining some stories from the darker side of folklore in support of my new book which is out soon.

There will be stories from the book and other lore too.
