WARNING: ADULT CONTENT



As the author of this blog, I want to warn you that there is some sexual language within these stories. It's not vulgar, nor is it explicit, but if you would be offended by the language in a typical male (or female) locker room, then you should probably leave.


These are romances, therefore, expect romantic situations. Is it PG-18? Probably not, which is why I have not set this blog to ask if you are over age. In all honesty, I think most of these "safe-guards" are a load of crap because we all know that a kid can access whatever they want by lying. If you are a parent and insulted, then I hope that you are keeping healthy tabs on what your kids are reading both online and off. Healthy--like discussing with them what you find appropriate or not for whatever maturity level they are.

First, please read On historical writing.

Now, enjoy this list of references I used while writing this...thing, hahaha.

(By the way, I'm not going to put every website I used, specifically from Wikipedia--assume that unless otherwise noted I got my information from the pages linked to within the article, but still within Wikipedia--for example, I got my information about Alan Rufus via Gunhild's page plus information gathered from the Earl of Richmond page.)

And because I don't know exactly how a house is built...

Herm...so I just found this youtube video on "The Secret Lives of Trolls". Now I'm wondering if my portrayal of Jeff as a "Troll" is accurate. Is he possibly a "Troll Slayer"? I'm not sure. I envision him as writing both sides of the argument. So on one hand, he's both Troll and Slayer, with the Slayer always winning. BUT at the end of the day, he's commandeering the conversation so that his voice is the loudest, which is standard Troll operating procedure. So, like everything else, it's highly debatable, but I still think he'd describe himself as a Troll in order to commandeer the title to discredit the Trolls--he trolls the Trolls, thus making him a Troll.

OMG. So, I'm working on my family genealogy and while I "quickly" lost track of the Flusches (I only got a generation or two further than I'd previously found), I have discovered that I can trace my lineage to AT LEAST 1000 AD Germany. And, I just found that in 1063 one Bernhard II. von Werl built Arnsburg Castle, hehehe. All I've really wanted to do is to say that there's a castle in my family and there is!! I haven't gone about verifying the information yet; I've currently got 7 tabs open where there's at least one generation further for me to go. I'm incredibly thankful to Bernd Josef Jansen because he's done a heck of a lot of work. I need to figure out how we're related.
