    Thanks, Sheri! I finished my first book and I'm working on the second. My agent is shopping it around now to publishers! Would appreciate your prayers, so people could read about these Vikings someday!

    Hmmm…Stina, you might change your mind when my book comes out someday! (I'm thinking of my Leif Eiriksson in particular). Regardless, here's hoping my book will make you feel more comfy around Vikings! Grin.
