Come see this face in person this Saturday!
Amazing! We went to see A Comedy of Errors there last year. It was amazing but I wish we’d been down in the pit.
"This is a Classicists List not a political one."
A field of study is doomed when it surrenders its claim to be relevant to the real world, to how we live our lives in relation to other human beings, & cultivate mutual understanding. Isn't that the very point of the humanities?
I hope you do - well worth it, packed with some fantastic artefacts from Knossos and beyond.
Delighted to stumble upon this in Heraklion Archaeological Museum just the other day.
Over on our Substack today, the inestimable @jarredmcginnis.bsky.social picks the books that inspire his own writing, books that push the form of nonfiction and memoir - from Hong Kingston to Harry Crews.

Join us for our new workshop, First Steps in Writing Creative Non-Fiction, in person in Norwich on 12th July. We can’t wait to meet you and share what we’ve learned from writing, editing, publishing and talking about creative non-fiction over the last 6 years www.eventbrite.com/e/hinterland...
Another thing I’m doing (it’s going to be a busy ol summer!) is running this nonfiction writing workshop for beginners, in the newly renovated Carrow House here in Norwich. Come join me!
One of the questions I’m asked most is about feedback and mentorship for nonfiction writers - well, I’m offering a new service via Hinterland. So, if you’re a nonfiction writer in need of a close read of your manuscript or in search of a mentor to help develop your writing, check it out.

I love that line.
Great work! Thank you.

Gladiator I was a PhD thesis by comparison 😂
Thank you!
No! Even lazier - I cut the sprue up into strips and just paint them on that before attaching to the base.
And kept my stripes big instead
Yeh @garfytop.bsky.social’s look amazing! I went for tiny Blood Angels instead…
