This story takes us from the formation of England to the Harrying of the  North. With the help of a Saint and the giving of a gift, Athelstan will bring the lands of East Riding in to the control of the 'English'.  Over a century later and William the Conqueror, seemingly unstoppable,  continues to cement his rule in England leaving areas of the north  unable to sustain a rebellion...or life itself. That is until he ravages  the land of St John...I hope you enjoy it :)

Join me for historical tales from the iron age through to the emergence of gunpowder (I lose interest then). 

I research my stories based around a peculiar event or a character that amuses me. What develops from there can often lead to some surprising tales and some interesting perspectives to well known events. 

I have plenty of projects half written, jotted down on the back of a beer mat or stored in the depths of my memory somewhere so keep checking back for more content.
