Merry meet to one and all,
The beginnings of a story for me pop up in the most unlikely places. When I see or hear a bit of information I can’t help but to go into my "What if" mode. As for writing a fantasy story, it was an accident, it had always been my desire to be a Science fiction writer.
At 38 years old I returned to college to complete my education. It was a great challenge for me to undertake study once again, after a hard struggle with school in my youth. That first semester, sitting in my American History class the instructor assigned the class to write a paper on an American Holiday, it's origin and so-forth. It was the first week of October and so I thought of Halloween . . . of course! Off to the library I went to do research and there I became lost in a world I had never known, a world of wonderment and intrigue, a world that based its survival on human sacrifice.
My research took a few weeks in total as I absorbed myself in history . . . back to Pre-Christian times in Ireland where Pagans created Halloween, originally called All Hallows or Samhain night. I felt mesmerized by Celtic history and folklore as I slipped into my "What If"mode where my imagination went into high gear.
The paper I finally turned in, started with fact but blurred into fiction, titled originally "Summer’s End" a short story of 95 pages, a bit much for the assignment to say the least. My instructor gave me a passing grade of C- for all the work and effort I put into the paper. However, he told me Halloween is NOT an American Holiday and therefore simply could not give me the A+ I hoped to receive. He said I should have written about Thanksgiving, or Independence day, Memorial Day, Labor Day or Martin Luther King day etc. Naturally, I was disappointed with the grade . . . till he told me that he LOVED my story but felt it was not complete as he began to question me about the characters. Feeling exhilarated, we spoke for a good while on possibilities of making the story more in-depth. My instructor strongly advised that I complete the story for publication. That was all the encouragement I needed as I embarked into writing my fantasy novel that grew into 10 books in the series over the following 15 years. I never dreamed I would write a fantasy story, but there you have it. You never know when a story is about to be born or where it will take you. That is the wonderment and joy of being a writer.

Destiny's Warriors by R. M. Putnam (Cover)
|
Destiny’s Warriors is the first in a series about an unexpected time traveler, Ferrin Collins, archaeologist and professor living in modern-day Belfast. Ferrin goes out to explore for a possible dig-site and dozes off in the woods, dreaming as always of another time and place. When he awakes, he is in the past in ancient Ireland, with no idea how he will get by! Somehow, he stumbles onto his Destiny in the town of Erui.
Ferrin meets a Druid called Wolf, who seems oddly familiar. During their time together, Wolf tells him the tale of Destiny’s Warriors which is a tale of betrayal, murderous plots, rivalry and forbidden love as guided by the hand of Destiny. What results is an exhilarating journey into the horrors of human sacrifice. Destiny’s Warriors inspires its readers to empathize with the characters while they try to survive in an ancient, harsh world of magic, horrific monsters and the brutality of war.
My merchandise consist of Medieval Cloaks and Robes based on the characters within my story. All robes are custom sized to length and color.
