In my copious spare time I am writing my second historical fiction novel. This time it’s set in the Chartres Cathedral in France in 1198 with monks and warriors. My previous book was set in Algonquin Park in 1917 with artists and lumbermen.

I am having great fun fusing what I have learned from historical research (medieval architecture, forgery and trading networks).

It’s super fun to incorporate what I have learned (am learning) from bitcoin and nostr, knowing that nothing is truly new under the sun. Just echoes of history past, plus people always willing to kill for their privilege.

The goal is to have something published in early 2026, if the world doesn’t end first.

Here’s a potential book cover as a teaser. I might share some sneak peeks, but not sure yet.
