Hello everyone,

Phew, that's the Christmas period over, and sorry that it's been such a while since I last was in touch.

A few things have been in the pipeline over Christmas. I have a short story coming out soon that will be incorporated inside a heavy metal album. There will be more about that later on, nearer the album's release date, then I can give you lots more details.

I will be adding a few more pages and a bit more content on here. I would like to re-upload parts of Thomas of Newburgh's History of English Affairs from my old blog. These will be the juice parts that involve curious phenomena and the supernatural, which include zombie revenant sightings, twin suns in the sky and the Green Children of Woolpit. I hope you will enjoy those.

The other thing that will be seen on my blog will be a sporadic series of curious folkloric, supernatural and historical things that tickle my imagination. I would like to upload them when I can in the hope that they will put some fire in the imagination of others as well.

Also, I have been working with Northworthy Sagas and Stories. I was impressed by their ethos of wanting to record and archive tellings of Dark Age folklore. Alongside that, they aim to share as much as they can about Dark Age history, myth, legend and culture. So I will soon be on YouTube as either a Viking or an Anglo Saxon. I am also working on their blog, which I hope will be ready soon, so watch their space, I applaud their effort.

One thing that's related is that I am planning a fictionalised short story that will be part of a saga for a persona that I'm developing for Northworthy Sagas and Stories. It will be based at Repton, and old capital of Mercia and involve Vikings, Saxons and a Lovecraftian god. It is based on a short story that I wrote many a year ago that I was unhappy with and didn't do anything with.

One thing that I will be doing with this story is that I will be using tarot readings to help me better develop the story. After a bit of interest, I will be converting some of my methods and planning involving the tarot readings into blog articles that I shall put up on here! So watch out for those.

Well, that is all that I've been up to recently and I hope the New Year is treating you all well. I wish you all good health and a good bye.

Hello all,

This is being put up a little later than I thought it would be, but better late than never, as they say.

This last week or so has been very good to me. I've completed a short story and its to be published! Which I'm immensely pleased about. Hopefully, by the end of the month, it'll be in print, if not, it should be out before Christmas at least. I'll Keep everyone updated on what happens there. I'll also provide links to where you guys can get your hands on it. It'll be part of a multi-media package that I'm excited to be included in.

Something else that I've been working on is for the Northworthy Sagas and Stories YouTube channel. The blog is coming along and soon there will be some new banners made for the blog as well as the YouTube channel itself. After that, once I've built up some content, the blog will go live.

I am now an admin on their channel and you'll be able to come and chat with us when a video goes up via YouTube's canny premiere facility.

With Northworthy, I have been invited along to perform in some of their videos. So I have a Saxon persona that I am currently working on, replete with my own Saga that will hopefully will be performed as a milestone and also be published as a book that is accompanied by a series of short stories and some Skaldic poetry that I am learning the formula for. So watch out for that.

Alongside all of that, Northworthy Sagas and Stories may also be introducing a series of black-smithing videos and videos on how to tailor Dark Age period clothing. Hopefully, I'll have a hand in that. I await with baited breath.

As always, I'll keep you lovely people updated on my exploits and progress.

Farewell!
