Cadfael database

wiseheartI've created a farily extensive Cadfael database on my Medieval, horror and fantasy list, formerly known as the Teleki Blanka Yahoo Group.
In the Database section, there are data tables listing all characters that appear in the books, divided into Monks and Nuns, People from Shrewsbury and Surroundings, People from the Outside, Welsh Characters and Saints. There's also a data table that will eventually list all places ever visited by Cadfael (that are in the books, that is), however that's a newly created data table with only a handful of records yet.
In the Files section, there is a Cadfael folder containing the background stuff I've been able to hunt down so far: about popes, bishops, earls, abbots and so on. Also about English and Welsh history, historic places, timelines and the likes.
In the Photos section, there isn't much Cadfael-related stuff, as I don't have pics on my own and didn't want to use shamelessly other people's photos that I've found ont he Net. Just a couple of pics from official sites; the Photos section is member-restricted anyway. I gladly accept donations, though. *g*
Not much in the Links section yet, but I'm working on it, as well as on filling up the blanks in the Database.
Eventually, I'd like to create a Cadfael fanpage. The most useful I've seen so far is Steve C's Cadfael page, but it's more about the TV-series than about the books. I'd like to create something that could be used as a Cadfael lexicon and as a resource for fans and fanfic writers.
Yeah, I know, I'm insane. But a student of mine offered her help in web design and perhaps for the first time in my life I'll manage to do something on my own. It would be such a warm, fuzzy feeling of success. *g*
