Just couldn't bring myself to do so Culhwch (and did you know you featured in my second book?) but don't really know why! But I think one reason is that if anyone says I am copying her, well I can honestly say I don't know how as I've never read any of her books. Secondly, I love history and try to weave my stories through with some ancient or historical fact (they are written in the post-Roman/Dark Ages). As far as I know, there is no history in the Harry Potter books - purely fantasy. Correct me if I'm wrong (and knowing everyone at the Chrons - they ain't slow in doing that!!!)
