About Me
I have lived in the Outlands always, and have been active since the first day of A.S. XII. I started in Shadowskeep and moved to al-Barran. My lord husband is Jarl Gunwaldt Gulbjorn. I am a Mistress of the Pelican and of the Laurel. I went many years trying to teach broadly without proteges or apprentices, thinking it better to help anyone with any interest in learning. As I got older my feelings changed, and I have had some excellent mentoring relationships with individuals of whom I am very fond and proud. I have written and collected the writings of others for many years, and am glad the internet gives an opportunity for one to open the filing cabinets up to a greater audience. For that reason, I have been putting things on my webpage (SandraDodd.com/sca) for the edification of any who have an interest in those SCA things I have loved in my life.
