She's now painting Epona in oils. The priestess was always Lynda's creation even before I started on the series. Infact, the idea began with her creation of Cernunnos, god of wild things/horned god, who takes the leading role as Cerno. Keep this under your hat ;-) as you and she are both beta readers ahead of publication!

When I was a teacher my advice to the boys was always to be kind even when people seem off, because you never know what dragons other people are fighting. I am sometimes slightly embarrassed at what I put poor old Lucius Sestius through but his experience was and is no different to that of many people. Having a peaceful happy life is nice idea and happens at times to many of us - but the dragons need to be held off.

Thank you Alistair, such a sad day for everyone. A bright flame of hope over adversity and tyranny extinguished.

Hope in all your stories is the driver to overcome the suffering of people, true today as through the centuries.

Hi Carole - yes always overcoming. But the Navalny case makes my stories seem shallow compared with how he suffered for a just cause. May many carry the flame for him.
