My genuine thanks to Carla Nayland of Carla Nayland Historical Fiction for awarding this blog the "Fabulous Blog Award"! Anything nice Carla says about me is a meaningful thing to hear!
I am to list five obsessions and then five more people with fabulous blogs.
Obsessions
1. Anglo Saxon England and anything related to its people, history and culture. Just ask anyone who has spent more than ten minutes with me. I find a way to bring it up, come what may.
2. Irish anything, especially the music -- see my Celtic music station online at Radio Dé Danaan and history, particularly the history of Irish rebellion.
3. Historical fiction, of course, and in particular that which takes place in the Middle Ages. See my site medieval-novels.com and my Let's Read Historical Novels online book group. This includes fostering the supply of historical novels in alternate formats for severely visually imapired readers such as myself.
4. My family, which includes my adored husband Jim and our even more adored cats, Stanzi, Kitkat, Mr. Hata and MacDhui.
5. My oldest friends, the characters in An Involuntary King. Lawrence, Josephine, Shannon, Rory, and the rest have been as real to me for the past 45 years as most DNA-bearing folks have been.
