Can you believe it’s been two years since I started this little venture?
The last year has been…bizarre, in so many ways. A whole year in and out of lockdown, home-schooling more often than not. I started my PhD in October and although I’m a part-time student at the moment, I seem to think about little else.
I decided to stop taking on full trees last year, because they take up time, and I could no longer promise to deliver within four to six weeks. Despite that, in the last year, I’ve done:
Eight (and a half) full trees
Eight searches of varying degrees of complexity
Three house histories
Three mini-jobs of varying types
Over 250,000 words
One talk!
Blog posts on bigamy, throwing statues in the sea, child neglect, community cover-ups, grief, historic rape, domestic violence, infanticide and male violence.
1700 tweets @SophieMHistory
THREE TERMS of home-schooling!!
And most importantly, ONE SIXTEENTH OF MY PHD LIT REVIEW
The kids are back in school, I’m getting into a research rhythm and I’m hoping to take more work on soon. In the mean time, I’m always available for little jobs and searches (see my services page for more).
Thank you for your custom, if you’ve bought anything this year, and for your support. ❤ ❤
