About this Blog

'A ballad is usually set to music; thus, it often is a story told in a song. Any myth form may be told as a ballad, such as historical accounts or fairy tales in verse form,' Wikipedia says. So, at first, there were this MEMOIRS OF LORD HALLOWEEN. Then, there was SHELL SHOCKED ISABEL SHRAPNEL. And now, there is YOUR FAVORITE GHOSTWRITER CHRISTOPHER MARLOWE II! Enjoy!
