I was born in a little-known corner of England where my ancestors were a hearty blend of famine-fleeing Irishmen and sailor-killing smugglers. From a young age, some of my teachers remarked that I had ‘’an unusual obsession with macabre history and showed little to no interest in the schoolwork provided for me.’’ Well, if only they could see me now! For the past decade, I’ve been running this self-styled British empire in my own corner of the internet that has earned a beloved following of people who range from mildly curious and eccentric to the downright weird, and I love all of them equally.
