Spending a few hours working on book ideas. Environment will play a large part in it. So glad I have photos from a boat trip showing Sussex's not-so-friendly coast, even in good weather. #Fieldwork #Boatwork #SussexCoast #HistoryWriting

First meeting today to discuss our next Society book- Leighton Buzzard High Street. Domesday market, Alice Chaucer Market Cross, fairs and markets, and its role in WWII, this is going to be amazing to write! Twinned with, and across the river, from my #OnePlaceStudy #LocalHistory #HistoryWriting

Wrote a piece in The Times Record about a local fire station raising funds for a piece of firefighting history in Maine.

Working on my book this morning. It seems to read well for the first 700 years, then the 19th century part and beyond - yuck! I don’t seem to be able to gel it. No matter how I try and write it, it still comes out as “this happened, then that happened.’ Going to take another break! #HistoryWriting

My journey as a Tottenville historian began in a newsroom, not a library. Covering Spanish Camp's demise led me to discover Dorothy Day's connection to my parish.
