Two Years of Jousting !

After two years and three months works, I am finally finished "Jousting with Jesters an ABC for the Younger Dragon." The tale grew in the telling, as someone once famously said, from a raft of daft alliterations to, "An Elegantly Entertaining Elfabet", a quote from Guy Gavriel Kay, who certainly knows his way around a tale or two. The book will be out this fall and is published by Orca Books who are based in Victoria B C. More soon.

Jousting With Jesters



Martin has just put the finishing touches on his book Jousting With Jesters. The book should be available in the early fall. Martin wrote and illustrated Jousting With Jesters.
