I’ve noticed a creepy phenomenon since publishing my second book #Heiresses that was not a thing back when #BlackTudors came out in 2017. I get these weird sucky-up emails that must have been written by AI claiming they will get the book the audience it deserves… anyone else get this?
Was a pleasure to speak about #Heiresses @bridportarts.bsky.social with @malikalnasir.bsky.social - author of “Searching For My Slave Roots” and @paullashmar.bsky.social author of “Drax of Drax Hall“. So many synergies between our work. And some fascinating insights from the audience too…
Latest podcast interview about #Heiresses - thanks @vulgarhistory.bsky.social!
It was lovely to be in conversation with Leslie Primo @nationalgalleryuk.bsky.social recently - especially as they have Zoffany’s portrait of my #Heiresses cover girl - Mrs Oswald - & paintings previously owned by the Watson Taylors from Chapter 9. Interview by Jelena Sofronijevic of Empire Lines.
It was great to spot & sign the US edition of #Heiresses published by @pegasusbooks.bsky.social at @barnesandnoble.com @bnunionsqnyc.bsky.social Union Square during my recent trip to New York!
Great night @britishlibrary in conversation with Sudhir Hazareesingh and Nicole-Rachelle Moore - we could have talked about #Heiresses and Rebels all night long!
Really one of the best things about a book tour is getting to meet and talk with fellow authors! Thank you #Heiresses!

Two exciting events with my book #Heiresses this week @britishlibrary.bsky.social & Birmingham Literature Festival, in conversation with some great fellow writers - if you’re in #London or #Birmingham do come along…
Hope to see you @britishlibrary.bsky.social on Thursday 9th October - I’ll be sharing some letters from the BL archives that I used for #Heiresses including one written in 1832, in the aftermath of the Baptist War in Jamaica… events.bl.uk/events/heire...
Incredibly proud of this review of #Heiresses by Ophelia Field in The Times Literary Supplement.
