Crystal writes on “The Oddest Inkling”

September 27, 2013

Yesterday, Crystal’s reflection on Charles Williams’s The Place of the Lion was featured on The Oddest Inkling webpage, maintained by Inkling scholar Sorina Higgins. Visit the page below to read Crystal’s thoughts on this influential book, which kindled a friendship between Williams and C.S. Lewis and also played a significant role in shaping Lewis’s final installment of the Ransom/cosmic trilogy, That Hideous Strength.

Updates on Crystal and the Narnia Podcast

September 10, 2013

Hi folks!

My apologies for pausing the Lewis and Women series while I return to work/battle sickness/finish some small projects.  Thank you for you patience as I transition back into my work routine and tweak my writing schedule.  I will post my next installment next week (I promise!).

In the meantime, you can head over to http://narniacast.mymiddleearth.com/ and listen to the first installment of a seven-part podcast on The Chronicles of Narnia hosted by William O’Flaherty of Essentialcslewis.com, Paul Martin of Narniafans.com, and yours truly!  The first podcast, which runs about 40 minutes, covers The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and features the expertise of Dr. Bruce Edwards of Cslewisreview.com.

I am doing some “seed-planting” right now, with some smaller projects as well as modifying my dissertation on Lewis’s leadership for general market publication. Updates will follow soon.  🙂

Thanks for reading!

Crystal
