As I write, the big yellow thing has returned to the skies above Glasgow, and people are turning into lobsters. But before we welcome our new crustacean overlords, I’ll be appearing at the Once and Future Fantasies conference at the University of Glasgow.
COP26, the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference, kicks off in Glasgow on 31st October. To celebrate this and the Being Human Festival, the University of Glasgow’s College of Arts is hosting The Dear Green Bothy, a series of events on Creative and Critical responses to issues of Climate Change and Sustainability. And I’ll be there co-hosting a writing workshop with Oliver Langmead.
Quick bit of news for you: I’m moving to the University of Strathclyde!
What an amazing time Flights of Foundry was! Fun panels with amazing creative minds, and the opportunity to share and discuss with a vibrant community across the world.
