Well, a lot has happened since the last update. Since I’ve got at least two new books coming out, I think it’s time to start catching up.The highlights:1. I moved to the UK in July 2020. I accepted a position as Course Leader...

I wrote a couple of things, and they’ve ended up being shared on social media more widely than I was expecting. The first was meant as comfort and encouragement because so many friends and colleagues in the US and other...

There’s quite a bit of news. I have two academic books in the pipeline, both co-edited with Sam Meekings, a friend and colleague who’s from the UK but is based in Qatar. We met a couple of years ago at the very...
