at last, a step into the 21st century, I have books on Kindle. Mostly they are spiritual, connected with my circle-of-light website, but there is a YA book there, based in history, which might interest a few readers. As my life is mostly wrapped around spiritual work, though, that is where the bulk of the kindle books are based.

April 2009

With Edward Woodville’s book done, permission for the memorial plaque in Carisbrooke Castle Museum gained and the plaque ordered, with the historical series sold and work going on apace, the biography has bee sadly neglected. However, the current author is not that forthcoming and there is time to work.

the work begins again on The Biography, around the work done on his brother's book, Captain Of The Wight.

I have prepared a leaflet for the Museum to sell on Antony, a thank you for all the help. They are printed, boxed, and in the office because I walked out without them and only remembered as I walked up the slope to the castle…




Meantime, I am waiting on news of an agent before I go sending the proposal out again. I've been recommended to the agent by a publisher. She has all the information I can put together on my books, apart from children's, which she doesn't do. They are out with another publisher right now. I wait…




...read the two biographies of Elizabeth Woodville. Verdict, one is boring, breaks all the rules set out in the How To Write A Biography book and did not bring this vibrant Woodville alive at all. The other was better, but biased. The author obviously does not like Richard III (the world is divided into two types of people, those who do and those who don't) and it shows.
