What If … Anne Boleyn had a son in 1536? Rather than a miscarriage?

Today I've released the first in what I hope will be a new series of posts about the what-ifs of Tudor history - my first explores the question of, what if Anne Boleyn birthed a son in 1536?

Book Review - 'Anne Boleyn: Fatal Attractions' By G.W. Bernard

Today's book review is one I published on my blog back in 2012 but it has now also been posted to my Substack - 'Anne Boleyn: Fatal Attractions' by G.W. Bernard. The only historian, as far as I'm aware, who believes Anne Boleyn was guilty of adultery!

Aww thanks @emilythepoet.bsky.social !! Hope you enjoyed it!

“I won’t let them break me down to dust, I know that there’s a place for us, for we are glorious.”

Never has this song seemed more appropriate #Autism #TheGreatestShowman

Autism is a neurological difference in the brain - it is not caused by any kind of pain relief or vaccine, and cannot be ‘cured’. It’s not a disease.

I am not less because I am autistic.

Having this morning submitted the manuscript for my fourth book to my publisher, I can now reveal the working title is 'Henry VIII's Quest for an Heir: The King's Great Matter'!

Here's to book 4! 🎉

@penandswordbooks.bsky.social

The 5-star reviews seem to keep coming for 'The Many Faces of Anne Boleyn' - I'm so so thrilled by how many people are enjoying it and appreciating what I've tried to do by not taking a traditional biographical approach!
