Greetings friends—
Ever wondered how we came to the version of the Arthurian legend we’ve settled upon?
I’ve just put up a piece that explores how the legend of King Arthur developed over time. If you don’t know, it’s a combination of the work of different authors over the course of a few hundred years… This one added Arthur, this one brought Merlin into the story, this one added Lancelot… until finally we arrived at the version we consider definitive.
Go here to read my piece on the development of the Arthurian legend.
This is part of my effort to get my website in good shape before the relaunch of my Swithen series early next year. I’ve completely rewritten the first book and am giving serious revisions to Books 2 and 3. I’m in the middle of Book 3 right now and things are looking good for Spring 2023. The first book will have a new name, and the first three will have new covers.
Alright, that’s it for now! Hope you’re well and have a good Halloween.
Scott
