'Tis the Season, Faire Season!
April 14, 2025 - The faire season is upon us! Or more correctly, the faire season is upon ME. I have my first market fair on April 19th, at Frank's Bargain Center in Charlestown, MA. Last year, they did their first open air market and fair, and it was a HUGE success. This year, we hope to make it even better. If you're in the area, stop by and visit the market, pick up early fresh vegetables, craft items, local food and handmade gifts, and of course visit me at my tent. I'll be in 18th century kit, cooking over a brazier and talking about historical cooking, and the Fort at No. 4! The calendar has been updated as of: April 14, 2025. The Tavern Anthology The anthology is still happening, but I am investigating new methods of finding funding. I currently have about 25 submissions for the anthology, and I'd like to have a bit more to make it the best book that I can. For that reason, I'm extending the submission time to the end of April. So if you haven't written that tavern story yet, you still have time! For more details about the anthology, check out The Turning Leaf Tavern page. Lessons in Writing If you're interested in the writing "lessons," I'm continuing them! I was supposed to do them every second week, but it's turning out to be every third or so. I will be posting more, but with a sprained wrist and faire season looming, they may be somewhat hit or miss.

There are many programs out there to help with grammar, spelling, and punctuation. While they are not a replacement for a good editor, they are a wonderful place to start!
