edit data

Writer, mad cake lady, re-enactor, historian.
Been slightly potty about the clankier side of Ironside for around 20 years, and lists amongst my heroes in this unworthy world Sir Thomas Fairfax, Elizabeth Cromwell and John Webster (for his sense of humour.)

When not purveying historically-accurate cake to various re-enactment groups across the country, M.J. Logue can usually be discovered practising in her garden with a cavalry backsword.

Absolutely loved it If Jeeves and Wooster worked with The Sweeney... Humour, politics, crime, and an absolute shocker of an ending. Would give more stars if it was possible.

M.J.’s Quotes

“If all my royal kindred
Lay in my way unto this marriage,
I'ld make them my low foot-steps”
― John Webster, The Duchess of Malfi

“What's this flesh? A little cruded milk
Fantastical puff-paste. Our bodies are weaker than those
Paper prisons boys use to keep flies in; more contemptible,
Since our is to preserve earth-worms. Didst thou ever seen
A lark in a cage? Such is the soul in the body: this world
Is like her little turf of grass, and the heaven o'er our heads
Like her looking-glass, only gives us a miserable knowledge
Of the small compass of our prison.”
― John Webster, The Duchess of Malfi
