Jon the Storyteller

More Old Norse stuff to look forward to: at the end of the month I’ll be running a workshop at this activity day, using storytelling to engage and inspire local Girl Guides with Viking history and STEM subjects (a very fruitful mix of topics, you’ll find!). And best of all, to finish the day my good friend Rachel Levy and I will give our telling of the Saga of Hervor and Heidrek – a dramatic, haunting and bloodthirsty tale of warrior women and kings, all finding their way against the world’s expectations. We’ve been working on it for a while and it’s such a profound, evocative story. Can’t wait to share it.
