In early June, researchers from 15 universities and 6 countries came together @ihr.bsky.social for a workshop to discuss the who, what, where and why of the Little Ice Age. Thank you for all who came, presented, spoke and asked challenging questions! nehnetwork.wordpress.com/2026/07/20/f...

So: I’m on a mudlark through history, dipping into stories and moments in time. Each chapter begins with a find: a muddy fragment which catches our eye, a detail glimpsed in the archive, the tiniest shard of a historical event or episode. Where will it take us? 4/5

So… my new #book project is a human #history of #MUD! Not a study of geology or earth sciences, it’s a cultural history, seeking out where mud meets human stories, experiences and imagination across the centuries, delving into the muddy, intriguing edges between history and literature. 1/5
