Congratulations Are Due
A quick congrats to Stacia Kane for her most recent book birthday: Sacrificial Magic just released on the 27th. Here's to it doing well!
But the big congratulations go to Geoffrey Ashe, whom I've mentioned on the blog before as the Arthurian scholar I've had the privilege of studying under (and dining with) on my few trips to England. It's old news at this point, as the Guardian article was posted way back on December 31, 2011, but I just found out last week: Geoffrey has been made a Member of the Order of the British Empire for his service to Britain's heritage. His wife sent 'round a photo of the ceremony (which sadly belongs to the press agency, so I can't reprint it). Instead, I thought I'd post a photo of Geoffrey at Glastonbury Abbey, giving one of his lectures to our group back in 2009.
Congratulations, Geoffrey!
