Welcome and Roadmap

Thank you so much for your interest in my written work. Publishing is an important part of the academic endeavour. It is truly a labour of love, because you never get paid for what you write!

I am deeply grateful that you are honouring the many months and years that have gone in crafting these articles, book chapters for edited volumes, book reviews and one editorial that I wrote together with Amanda Williamson, and which is significant for the Way of the Wild Soul. 

Under copyright law, I cannot give you all the articles exactly as they have appeared in print. Some articles were fine as they are already in the public domain. For others you will find what is called the "pre-print version" which is the final text (of which I have copyright), before it went through the layout process of the journal or book. The content is exactly the same, but it is a simple text document instead of a printed layout. 
I organised the pieces by type of content, because sometimes you might want to read something short (go for a book review or an editorial), sometimes a bit more in-depth, like the articles or book chapters for edited volume. The character of a chapter in an edited volume is also slightly different to that of an article. Within each section, the pieces are ordered chronologically.

If you're interested in something really detailed, you'll find my PhD thesis included. Although you might have already seen this through the University of Roehampton's website, their upload misses the introductory chapter (no matter how often I've tried to rectify it, they continue to ignore this). So here you've got the full monty.
