Katherine Pym for some reason
really enjoys 17th century London, mostly the Restoration period of
the 1660’s. Those years show the abrupt turnaround between the strict Puritan
beliefs and the wild Monarchy romps, and how it profoundly affected the common
man. On another note, Katherine and her husband divide their time between
Seattle and Austin.
