Helping writers become bestselling authors

EPIC Resource for Fantasy Writers

May 26, 2010 by ANGELA ACKERMAN

Writing about castles? Knights? The plague? Want to know how Medieval Societies lived, how people farmed, how they dressed, what they ate, how they worshiped and what a woman’s role was? Need a timeline or maps during the Middle Ages?

Well, you’ll want to bookmark THIS.

Total. EPIC. Resource.

That’s all I have to say. Enjoy!

    Huh, I was just thinking I needed something like that! Thanks! Although, I do think we fantasy writers tend to get a little too wrapped in the Middle Ages. 😉
