Happy #SuperbOwl day! 🦉
This owl is from the Description de l’Égypte Pl.3. Author Jerome V.C Smith mentions an owl in Pilgrimage to #Egypt (1852): ‘One day a little owl made its appearance in the rigging,’ (p. 11). The owl travelled with him from Malta to Egypt! #TravelStudies

I’m thrilled to reveal the stunning cover of my debut novel #NEPHTHYS. @micaelaalcaino has outdone herself in portraying my heroine Clemmie & the blending of Victorian & Ancient Egypt.
Sister. Rival. Protector.

The @FAO headquarters in Rome even has hieroglyphs! 😍 #Egyptology
Four separate people have now sent me this/tagged me in this as they know I research ‘mummy brown’ paint. However, small ‘bite-size’ pieces of info such as this can be problematic. When asked how I feel about this, I had a few thoughts: 1/🧵
I’d just recommend adding *something* to the narrative beyond a morbid ‘tid-bit’. These small pieces of information aren’t wholly correct and invite no consideration for the wider context on the destruction of mummified remains. 14/
