The Mabinogion

The Mabinogion has played such a HUGE part in my past decade and a bit more of research for Ravens of Dinefwr. It helped me (along with N.C.) to weld the MSM History of Wales/Ireland/Scotland/The Normans/The Crusades with a new chronology and story. I’ve watched Cerys a few times – she’s my go-to-source for pronunciation […]

Muirchertach Ua Briain vs Modern Urbex

I’m nothing special. But I know how to research history. Cashel is connected to Muirchertach Ua Briain and therefore Magnus Barelegs/Norway/Wales/Dinefwr and the Ravens of Ravens of Dinefwr. I pulled ALL of my original research sources for this (MY) novel in progress…in progress…still in progress from this website. Why? Because about 10 years ago I […]
