Dear Abby,
I completed my PhD last year ('Embodied Knowing in Eco-Paganism') and
I'm currently looking for research or teaching opportunities: Would I be
eligible to attend this workshop? I'm not proposing to present anything,
but it would be useful in keeping up with advanced research methods.
Best wishes,
Adrian.
