We have apparently run into some scheduling problems with the blog tour today. We’re hoping to have them straightened out shortly, but in the meantime here’s something I meant to mention awhile ago, but which slipped through the cracks: Sharon Kay Penman, my dear friend and an extraordinarily talented writer, has written a very fine article on the difficulties (and rewards) of staying as true as may be to medieval mind-sets in our novels and not cheating by giving our characters modern sensibilities they could never have had. To that I can only add, “Hear! Hear!”

You might also be interested in an interview Sharon did with me back in December as a very special Christmas gift. Hopefully that can tide you over until this blog tour thing can get itself straightened out!
