My stories are all fiction with loose facts threaded throughout. A storyteller is featured in Highland Hearts, his name is Arliss.
He travels the countryside as a storyteller, an entertainer regaling battles, history, lore and ends each of his performances with a story that has a pointed moral.
I will not spoil the surprise but read/listen closely to the stories that he shares, with a Scottish twist of course and see if 1) you know the fable and 2) know the moral.
I am a history nerd of many periods. Medieval Scotland, especially before and during the reign of Robert the Bruce!
Scotland is a beautiful place filled with castles, mystery, magic, heartache, close bonds all set against a rich tapestry of history. I tend to leave the battles out though and stick to finding a happily ever after!
I love the research that comes with writing historical romance. The hours listening Scottish Gaelic in Twelve Weeks by Collins Dictionaries and reading The Naughty Little Book of Gaelic by Michael Newton just to use a handful of phrases! Scouring the internet for a castle without a popular history and finding Abercross (Aberscors) Castle which once did house Murray's! This list could go on & on...
