Monday, January 4th, 2010 | Uncategorized | No Comments

Happy New Year! I am very excited about what’s coming up in 2010.

In March, I will be hosting Susan Higganbottham, the author of the fabulous novel THE STOLEN CROWN about the Duke and Duchess of Buckingham during the time of the War of the Roses.

In April, my own novel, THE QUEEN’S PAWN, will be available in bookstores. I am thrilled!

In May, I will be fortuante enough to host C.W. Gortner, the author of the wonderful novel, THE LAST QUEEN. He will be discussing his latest offering,  THE CONFESSIONS OF CATHERINE DE MEDICI.  I can not wait to get my hands on that one!

This is a preview of What’s Coming up in 2010. Read the full post
