I love genealogy. It delivers me history and plots all in the one package. The novel that I am working on (in between short stories that is) is the fictionalised story of one of my ancestor couples. Note I said fictionalised. Part of that fictionalisation is name changes. I have […]
I haven’t done a blog post for a while so I thought I had best get onto it. Not 100% thought (don’t you love a cold) so I thought I would just do one of those posts that are based on sharing posts and information on similar topics. So I went […]

The first story starts with the death of Edward the Confessor on 5th January, 1066 (although the calendar has changed since then). So, while he is not a prominent feature of this tale, it is necessary for me to […]
As you know, I am busy planning my 50,000 word project for NaNoWriMo. My original idea of extending my novel is now nowhere to be seen. And I have also moved from an anthology of stories from pre-history to modern day, to just Medieval! There is such a richness of […]
