While you studied writing, I studied the blade. While you were having critique sessions, I mastered the parry. While you wasted your days at writing workshops in pursuit of sentence craft I cultivated grip strength. And now that you’re trying to write an epic fantasy novel and you don’t know how to handle swordplay you have the audacity to come to me for help? Well, you’re in the right place. In this episode of Rite Gud, we are talking about swords. We are joined by Johanus Haidner of The Academy of European Swordsmanship.
