I
wrote my #Amazon and #Create Space Biographies and sat back – to
wait.
Then
what happened? I got attacked: twice.
I
can only come to the conclusion and allege that some people make
judgements based on a name, a pen name, or a nationality.
Is
this because they have strange ideas, or are they just people who
take offence with other people, because of imaginary beliefs, or
their own personal sadness, or some other reason? I don't know.
Lazarian
is an Irish name in honour of Saint Lazarian the patron saint of
Carlow in Ireland. It's not a foreign name. It's my third Christian
Name.
Wordsmith
is in honour of the Celtic tradition of using a second name to
indicate a trade or skill or place in the community.
Examples
are (I will give the translations in English): Smith – The Black
Smith. Guilfoyle – The Servant of Paul. Mc Entaggart – The Son of
The Priest ( Not Necessarily a Catholic Priest). Seavers – The
Sea farers. And my own surname – The Son of The Hound of The Sea –
so ancient a name that our DNA has been identified as among the
oldest Irish DNA and it links my Sept – The Dál gCais – back to
the Basque Celts of Northern Spain.
I
also joked on my Bio. That I could not remember my Grand-kids names :
I can of course. Then I thought perhaps some people who will read
this genuinely don't know their Grand-kids at all because of family
discord. So perhaps I should change that.
Then
I said I had an Invisible Dog – big mistake!
Got
bitten seriously there. Was even called Dear and Love and things like
that in a hostile post.
