Hello friends,
I’ll be taking the next three weeks or so off to unplug and get myself right for the year. What this means is no social media (yes, this includes Substack), and screen time only as related to my job, keeping in touch with family and any emergencies. I’ll also be catching up on some much needed reading, cuddling with the kitties, deciding on my summer garden and trying to reprogram my sleep schedule.
Wish me luck!
Don’t Forget!
When we return, MA in 2025 will explore:
More on the intersection of mythology, folklore and geography.
More on how history shapes mythology and folklore (and vice versa).
More mythology and folklore from Francophone Africa.
More grant and internship opportunities.

Here are some replays from 2024 to keep you going and prepare you for what’s coming!
Meanwhile…
You already know “The Watkins Book of African Folklore” or the “Mythological Africans Book”, is now available for preorder! Click image for preordering options!

Good luck on all those things.
