My 2020 Blogging from A to Z Challenge revisits my best posts from the 2014 to 2019 Challenges.
M for Maid of Norway 1317 (2017)
I developed another key changing point in my AH Viking world when science shifts direction with the support of the alternative dynastic power – but all with historical connections.
Before the ‘our timeline’ revelation, will you recognise the real historical events or the ones that occurred later.
These reworkings of reality are all because I couldn’t stop constructing my Kanata alternative history. The initial trigger, Leif Eriksson’s permanent colonisation of Vinland, inspired me to rewrite other key episodes in history. I wanted the legacy forged from Vikings merging with the indigenous people to ripple down time. Kanata evolved into my vision of a 21st Century Viking Age.
Expect more alternative history ahead.
M is also for Masterpiece – the next chapter in my Sparkle Anwyl case, Custody Chain. This is my ongoing WEP/IWSG Challenge entry, started in February with Café Terrace.

I jumped into the middle of this and completely forgot about a2z. Enjoyed the post. 🙂

Glad it distracted you, Anna. In the novel, it’s more backstory – so the order is less important.

I have just read and thoroughly enjoyed, your latest WEP piece.
I am also a big, big fan of alternate realities (which are sometimes more appealing than our own). They are also very difficult to construct in a congruent way.

Our reality is not appealing at present, EC – nor at other points I’ve rewritten. Making this AH congruent was hard – still will be, if I do more.
