GK and Virginia Ann Werner write genre stories with a Biblical worldview. They live in Slower-Lower Delaware with their cats and dogs (who have many tales, but never tell). GK also teaches English, history and martial arts; Virginia composes melodies for Bible memory verses and for her own lyrics, and writes poetry. She is a home-maker who enjoys cooking, pets and children. (No, not like in fairy tales--punctuation matters!)

Robin of Locksley begins with a story of Robin at age eight and one as a teenager, but I haven't written any others about his childhood. I have a few ideas and if they become a set of stories I'd be happy to publish a book between Robert of Wakefield and Robin of Locksley. The way you phrased that makes me wonder -- raising Robin Hood? That couldn't have been easy for Megan and Robert.(less)

Hi Lilyyy! Thanks for the offer. I sure could use reviews!

If I had to name only one favorite fiction genre it would be fantasy, followed very closely by historical and SF. I’ve been enjoying browsing around Faith and Fantasy. Nice group of people! Just realized I haven’t introduced myself there.

Thanks so much for your interest in my work. I’d be happy to send you free paperback copies of The Sword and the Way, Finders Keepers, Quest’s End; and my wife’s book, The Dragon Catcher. The stories take place in that order but can be read out of order. (Although Finders should be read before Quest.) The Sword and the Way’s plot builds at an easygoing pace. The others are brisker. I’ll contact your email for your address to keep that private if you like.

Thanks again for your interest and a great reading group.
