So, there we were, in England, walking from Beeston Castle to Burwardsley, and for reasons I have yet to fathom, I thought Burwardsley was a fabulous name for my chief antagonist in The Ice Star. Never mind that I struggle to say it, repeatedly spell it wrong, and… yeah, never mind all that. It’s a curse. What can I say?

Yes,a jolly chap!🥺😆
Well… spoiler alert… he has a character arc over the span of three books. 😉
I remember thinking, when I first read that character’s name in the Ice Star trilogy, how odd it was . . and figuring you probably knew someone with that moniker and were having a good poke at him by making him a bad guy!! :o)
Ah, thank fully not. Although some people I’ve crossed paths and swords with in the past may have “inspired” certain unpleasant characters. But I genuinely like Burwardsley… Buwardsley… however his name is pronounced! 😉
