  • Another slightly chaotic episode -- I recorded this last night (which accounts for some of the strangeness *g*). I'm talking about the preparations for my first solo reading on 19 May and about one of my favourite authors: Rosemary Sutcliff.

    Enjoy! :O)

    I recorded this episode at uni yesterday, shortly before rushing to my class. Thus, apart from a tiny bit about the BLC 2006, I'm mainly talking about Old English stuff, namely about kennings and Old English riddles (the translations of the riddles are my own). This episode is definitely different from the others, but I hope you'll enjoy it! :O)

    Late night chatter. :O) This week I'm reading another one of my old poems -- "Arthur" (I've chosen this in honour of the new semester and my new course on medieval literature). And I'm talking some more about Lady Holland and Holland House.

    I haven't yet updated the podcast programme on my website since I'm having some problems with my own 'puter right now (I'm currently using my parents' computer). I hope things will be back to normal soon!

    Cheers, Sandy

    Today I'm talking about Holland House and read a poem which doesn't make any sense. :O)

    Enjoy!

    In today's episode I'm reading an old short story of mine called "Witch-in-the-Bottle": two little girls find out that it's better to let sleeping dogs lie, or rather, to let sleeping witches lie ... Enjoy!

Today's topics include: Sandra's take on settings -- Featured Book: Dorothy Dunnett's LYMOND CHRONICLES -- Reading: "Daisy" (okay, okay, I admit it: including a spring poem has proved to be a bit premature ... *g*) Enjoy!
