This is where things get really geeky. I’ve written about how Scottish history inspired the ‘Game of Thrones’ universe, charted the rise and fall of the castle age, busted the myths of Braveheart, and lots more. Here you’ll find links to my articles wherever possible and a full list of my publications.

From short-term projects like social media campaigns for Scotland’s major heritage organisations to long-term ambitions such as completing my book about Scottish castles, I go where the history is. Take a look at my past, current, and upcoming projects and collaborations and learn how you can get involved.
