His questions are ones people ask and debate today, and it is as important now as it has ever been for us to search for answers to them. -- David M. Young Author InformationI've written stories for children since I was a child myself. When my own children arrived I was too busy to write any down but I told them plenty of tales. Once they grew up and could stand on their own two feet I had the chance to write stories again and it is wonderful fun! Samuele (Trasna na Dtonnta) and Wulfgar are characters that I love so much I am sorry to have finished their adventures and shut the book on them. I'm a compulsive writer now and there are all sorts of things buzzing about in my brain – I only hope I can get it all down on paper – In fact I'd better stop writing this right now and get on with the job!
