Original Story: Gwillim the Smith, or the Devil and the Anvil

Gwilim the Smith

I spent about 7 years shoeing horses as a thing to seek my joy, and while I no longer work on horses I still enjoy blacksmithing. One thing about smiths is that there is a tendency to let the hammer strike the heel of the anvil between blows, not always, but from time to time, and people ask "why do you do that?" and here is one possible answer.

ARTS & SCIENCES: Of Oak and Meadowsweet and Broom - A Narrative Poetic Adaptation from the Mabinogion

 I was honored at the 2025 East Kingdom A&S championship to be chosen as Sovereign's Champion for my work in creating a narrative poem "Of Oak and Meadowsweet and Broom" as an adaptation of a portion of the Welsh Mabinogion. 

Included here are the research documentation submitted for the work, and a recording of the narrative poem.
