Sir Gawain and Sir Gavin. One ashamed of his arrogance, pride and vanity who will wear the green band to speak of his remorse of a flesh so corrupted. The other, all the things Sir Gawain is not: an arrogant, shameless & aggressive bully. King Arthur would banish him forever.

Well, what’s winter and snow without Gawain?

With just 1 day to go before the patron's list closes for King Arthur's Death, here I read briefly from my forthcoming book. The poem holds up a mirror to the vanity & pride of leaders worldwide: beware Arthur's fate and change while you can. Watch here https://t.co/fTL4u2DIuh
