Happy Independence Day! It's America's 250th birthday, and for this monumental occasion, I have written a post unlike any other I have ever posted (and probably will ever post) on this blog. Most of us Americans know the basics about our history, but reading the stories (whether true or legend) of people who actually lived … Continue reading 250 Years of History: My Personal Connections
Today is the first writing related post I’ve done since my blog switched to focus on medieval things at the beginning of this year. However, I am going to be doing this tag for my medieval romantasy which I’m currently querying, so it’s technically medieval, right? A big thanks to Hallie Kropf and Hannah Ruth … Continue reading My Character’s Theme Songs Tag
Today, I'm honored to be sharing an interview with author Sydney Witbeck, and introduce her newest book, The Faithful Exile, a nordic inspired Christian medieval fantasy! A huge thanks to Sydney for being willing to do this and be my guinea pig for my first ever author interview! Do check her out on her Substack … Continue reading Medieval Fantasy Author Interview: Sydney Witbeck
Today, I'm sharing my review on Jane's Secret by Jennifer Tirrell as a part of JustRead Tours's bookstagram tour. Even though the time period wasn't technically medieval, (it's in the Tudor era) it looked really good, so I knew I had to give it a try! The Synopsis (Taken from Goodreads): As a young lady … Continue reading Book Review: Jane’s Secret
Today's book review is going to be a bit different than my usual ones--shorter and less detailed. This is in part due to the fact that I have two (if not three) books I need to read and review in mid-June on the blog, and I am trying to dedicate my time to those books. … Continue reading Book Review: The White Knights
The White Ship Disaster is like a medieval Titanic--if the Titanic had only one survivor and resulted in a succession crisis to the throne of England.
I'm honored to be sharing my review on Vera Bell's Christian Viking Historical Fiction novel, Of Flaw and Scorn. Upon seeing that JustReads Tours was hosting a bookstagram tour for it and reading the synopsis, I knew I had to be a part of this. The Synopsis (Taken from Goodreads): Irish coast, 795 A.D. Caught … Continue reading Medieval Book Review: Of Flaw and Scorn
Last month, I introduced my new series Inspiring Events to you. Today's new series which I am excited to present to you, Medieval Heirs (Who Never Ruled), is similar to that series, except that it is going to be focusing on medieval British heirs to the throne who never ruled, whether from a premature death, … Continue reading Medieval Heirs: Robert Curthose
When this blog was in it's infancy (way back in early 2022) I wrote the first of my monthly book reviews on To Birmingham Castle by Alicia Willis, an indie published medieval Christian book which caught my attention on Goodreads. It earned a 4/5 stars from me, and I decided to read on in the … Continue reading Medieval Book Review: Rising to the Challenge
We all know the typical events for starting a war or rebellion: over-taxation, an assassination, or political corruption. But did you ever hear about the prank which caused a rebellion? While it has no official name, for today's post, I am calling it "The Chamberpot Affair", and it is one of my favorite medieval events.
I fear neither death, pain, or unpopularity
