Plus, you learned something. Sadly, you don’t know if you learned something accurate or made up. When I read about the milking of the deer, that really threw me…

This was such an interesting read, middle ages were indeed so much fun and provide content for your style of writing. You should do more on these lines. two questions: What was the son’s miracle to sainthood. Why did they dig up, move the buried.
Now there are women I admire. To deny men is a victory for femalehood 😊

I’ll look into those, ESP.
I decided to do a series on people of the middle ages because I found I was weak on that subject so, how better to learn than to research and write?
