I'm editing a short story collection right now set in a high fantasy world, a la Game of Thrones, or Middle Earth, with some Atlantis myth on the side.  Very "historical fantasy" with a twist.  Mages and swords and princes, oh my!

Stay tuned from Tales of Haydon, by Tim Tim, soon.  VERY soon.  Maybe even this weekend.  It's so close, I just need the time to click some buttons.

Poland, 17th century: full harnessing of a war horse.


From Le costume historique (The costume history) vol. 6, by Auguste Racinet, Paris, 1888.
