While I do have strong acquaintance with being out in left field by myself,
I would think I'm not the only one who would be happy to share what's important to you.
I was blessed to have a fantastic teacher, who happened to be a true master. His work can be seen all over the world in the various reenactor groups associated with the Vikings Vinland. Thanks for the kind words- I like to think that Farman is in Valhalla looking down me from time to time. I do my level best to justify all the time he spent teaching me! Everything I know is because of him. If you notice my makers mark, it's my initials in Norse runes. The stamps I use were his. (I mention this because you did say that you're a gatherer of peoples stories. If you would like to know more about my time with Farman, feel free to ask!) Here's a link to something else that would be of interest to a purveyor of stories:
