Mike Dixon asked Barbara Gaskell Denvil:

I’ve never come across the names Blessop and Tyballis before. Where do they come from?

Barbara Gaskell Denvil Hi Mike - thanks for asking. Blessop is a surname which is still in use nowadays and can be traced back many hundreds of years. Tyballis, on the other hand, was quite an unusual female Christian name and although there are instances of this name being in use in medieval times, it seems to have lost popularity in Tudor times and then died out. I hope you enjoy the book. All the best, Barbara.

Cintia

Cintia asked Barbara Gaskell Denvil:

Hi, my name is Cintia and I'm from Argentina. Being a writer is what I want the most in this world, nothing makes me happier than writing, but I'm more and more frustrated with each passing day, because I've been blocked for 3 years. And it is not that I have an unfinished story. I have NOTHING AT ALL. A blank page in front of me, that only makes me sadder... Is there a way to overcome this? How do you handle it?
