Other websites of interest
My work is inspired by the Middle English romances of King Arthur, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, the Round Table, William of Palerne and many others. But no man is an island unto himself. I am encouraged and inspired by the work and research of others. On this page, I have provided a number of links to other sites which I hope, too, will inspire you.
