A while back I posted a question on this blog, asking, 'Why Not Me?'
Well, since then, two important things have transpired.
#1, my DNA suggests that I am 38% Irish.
#2, Marilyn and I spent a month in Ireland in 2016, and I validated many of the things in my novel by visiting places I wrote about. Drogheda, Creevelea Abbey, Rivers Shannon, and Boyne and many others. So the research dictated a few minor adjustments in my descriptions of the landscape. Overall, I am satisfied that I have met my goal to minimize the misappropriation in the book.
