Sir, you have kindled a past love for literature and poetry when I used to talk with an English teacher in my early years as we shared our views about Shakespeare. At the age of 77 I look back on those days with fond memory. it was a very good time in my life, and I shall never forget it. Mrs. Ash was my English teacher in the 7th grade that won my heart along with our conversations. Your pipe smoking awakens the aroma of cherry tobacco, and my father‘s pipe at Christmas time. that too is a cherished memory. I truly enjoy your readings and wonder why I stopped with something so great in my life. I’m gonna reopen that part of my life at age 77 thank you sir.
Dear Malcolm, I had missed this with being busy. Utterly brilliant and utterly intoxicating. Having people like you in the world make things so much more worthwhile. I read the Anthony Mockler Autherian stories as a child, over and over. You are another level. God bless you for continuing the age old storyteller tradition.
Absolutely superb! I studied Arthurian legend in college and have always kept this vast, grand collection of tales in a corner of my heart. It stays not alone, but in company of Tolkien and Lewis and I add, Hans Christian Andersen! Your writing flows beautifully and casts a pleasing spell (an almost holy one) upon my ears and heart. Thank you for sharing this. I hope to buy your book once it's finished. During the past few weeks I have thoroughly enjoyed your videos. If I find in one of them the title of your finished Arthurian verse I shall buy it. God bless you Malcolm G. for your endeavor.
How do you do it, Malcolm? The tale just flows so f fluently? Your masterpiece. Your 'Grail', this tale? You still have a place in your heart for Durham, I feel sure.
It must be 28 years since I read Malory, this rekindles the sense of awe and yearning I felt at the knightly tales and deep mysteries of the grail. Another beautifully crafted and recited episode here Malcolm. Huzzah!
I hope your work on the Arthurian manuscript continues. Hearing from your WIP is wonderful. I so look forward to reading it someday, until then thank you for sharing!
A treasure. Thank you for your munificence with your knowledge and passion for your subjects Malcolm. It's akin to being privy to the great, great, great poetic grandson of Tom Bombadil. How I wish I had your tutelage and spiritual counsel at an earlier age! Your voice is important and has helped this artist reconcile his love and deep bond to land & lore and my discipleship to our Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you again from Kent
I recognized the name but did not know you or your works, when your channel randomly appeared in my You Tube feed a few weeks ago. I have watched several of your videos and am thoroughly enjoying them. I am a transit bus driver for the city of Toronto. It is nice to come home after a long day to my family but a bit of escapism is nice too. I don't know how many of your printed works have made it to Canada but I plan to visit Chapters at some point this weekend. I've never had an interest in Tolkien, King Arthur(Monty Python being the exception😁), magic spells, Wizzards, etc. Although I am a lifelong bookworm. Your videos have inspired me to take a step or two into a previously unexplored world. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you reading this. Cheers.
Enjoyed very much. I feel that Galahad's invitation is for everyone, yet personal. The Lord calls for everyone to follow and offers each one who heeds the call a specific quest for His Kingdom.
Fantastic as always. I have a dream to have a writers hut one day like yours. Your videos are always interesting and thought provoking. The fact that people as splendid as yourself exist in this big and often bad world gives me great joy and reassures me to see and hear and know that there are good, interesting, creative, other pipe smoking folk squirrelled away in writing huts and messy rooms lighting their pipes and working on the next verse. Keep on keeping on good sir, much respect and admiration from oxford. P.s. If you have not recorded yourself reading your works or the work of others then I think you should consider it and if you ever wish to record anything there is a little writers room/music room here for use if it helps. May your pipe burn slowly and new writings flow freely.cheers
Someday I must tell you, through the grace of God, the amazing story whole of my encounter with Sir Galahad in the beautiful little church of St. Mary and St. George in Jasper, Alberta.
@@MalcolmGuitespell Do you have an illustrator in mind? I only ask because as a bibliophile, Arthur freak and artist this project ticks all the boxes. Good luck with it all! Cheers

The story of Christ's redemption, told so beautifully it stirs the heart. Thank you.

Thanks for the timely encouragement. I'm a bit stuck at the moment (and hard pressed with other things) but this will spur me on!

Captivating and utterly beautiful!

Hearing these stories fills my head with all of my favorite works of art. THIS WAS THEIR INSPIRATION!!!!THANK YOU

Thanks, yes Durham is still very much a special place for me
