Hello new followers, welcome to this Egyptologist's random blog! Here I yell about Egypt, my novel, and life as mum of a high energy five year-old, all the while sharing bullshit memes and making lettuce shitposts. This is a personal blog, so don't expect purely Egyptological content. I also swear a lot.
For personal health reasons I'm currently not taking Egyptology research questions.
You can check out the FAQ instead, which I'm working on updating with 2 years of material. You're still welcome to send writing-related asks, silliness about Egypt or anything else, personal messages, etc. Just no longer answering asks that would require me to do cross-referencing, research, all that stuff (I might answer in brief if I have the pertinent knowledge at the ready). I'm still going to make bitchy little posts about ancient Egypt though, don't worry.
My official field of expertise is ancient Egyptian medicine, subspecialty head trauma/surgical treatment (particularly in the Edwin Smith Papyrus). I’m also the unofficial Seth expert by virtue of this apparently being a void that had to be filled on Egypt-interested Tumblr. Other than that I'm a Middle Kingdom and art history fangirl through and through.
If you like my Egyptology content and want to leave a tip (which is in no way required or even expected, but always greatly appreciated!), you can do so here:

The book I'm writing is a historical fantasy set in Ancient Egypt, about an infamous thief with the powers of the desert looking for her own identity in all the wrong places. When her hubris finally catches up with her, she must help the harsh general who has his own reasons for not trusting her defeat a magician with more heka than any mortal should possess. In her search for who she is, she decides to involve herself with many more cosmic powers than might be healthy - certainly more than would be smart. I yell about this thing a lot, you'll get used to it. If you see a random post or tag talking about D, that's ma'am miss thief. Not to be confused with C, who is my daughter.
